During a search for a missing woman suffering from dementia in California, Union City police gained access to Nadine Parker’s home. Instead of the 95-year-old, however, US officials found a man with “fungus growing from one ear” and the mummified corpse of another man – sitting on the toilet.
According to a report from local TV station KPIX, a cousin from another state alerted police. He had tried unsuccessfully to reach 95-year-old Parker.
House and property neglected
When police arrived at the house at the end of a cul-de-sac, trash was piled up to three meters high in the front yard. And the inside of the house was also in poor condition. The entire floor was dirty with trash, food scraps and all kinds of objects.
Confused man found with ‘fungus in his ear’.
Police found a man, approximately 50 years old, in a bedroom. Police spokesman Brandon Hayward said: “The man suffered from an intellectual disability, was emaciated and had fungus growing from one ear.”
“Mama” probably brother of the living son
On the first floor, officers were struck by the smell of decomposition. They made the gruesome discovery in the bathroom. Hayward: “The body on the toilet bowl was dehydrated like a mummy due to the heat. According to our preliminary investigation, this is Nadine Parker’s second son, who must have died of natural causes several months ago.”
An autopsy will determine the cause of death and a DNA test will determine the identity of the ‘mummy’.
