COSTA MESA – A woman drove for months with a dead mummified body in her passenger's seat before the body was discovered by police, authorities said.
Police are still trying to determine the exact cause and time of death of the unidentified woman, but the body of the woman had withered to roughly 30 pounds by the time it was discovered, authorities said.
(snip)
The driver told police she was afraid to contact police about the body, so she continued to use the car.
According to the advanced state of decomposition, officials believe the woman had been dead anywhere from three to 10 months, Everett said.

The driver said she put a box of baking soda in the car.
Had that worked, that would have made for one hell of an advertisement.

The least she could have done is found a taxidermist.

One comment - two questions.
Comment - Damn that’s cold
Q1. Where did she park it , that no one noticed?
Q2. Did the local kids think it was just the creepy old lady from neighborhood watch?

It is likely just a complete misunderstanding.
This kind of common occurrence happens often.

I’m surprised the neighbors didn’t blame the smell on a nearby sausage maker.
