Voting Records Raise Questions After Mummified Body Found

PONTIAC (WWJ/AP) - Voting records are raising questions amid an investigation into the discovery of a woman’s mummified body in the garage of a foreclosed metro Detroit home.

The body found last Wednesday in Pontiac is that of Pia Farrenkopf — according to her sister, Paula Logan. Authorities investigating the case haven’t released her name, but they have said that the woman apparently died in 2008 at the age of 49.

According to a report in the Detroit Free Press, records show Farrenkopf as voting in the November 2010 gubernatorial election. Officials say, however, that it may represent an administrative error. Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard says the information must be checked out.

The body found last Wednesday in Pontiac is that of Pia Farrenkopf . . . Authorities investigating the case haven’t released her name, but they have said that the woman apparently died in 2008 at the age of 49.

Well, somebody released her name or else I'm not understanding the reporting. But what do I know. I'm not an edumacated journalist.

There is a familiar theme when it comes to Demorcrats:

Mistakes were made, but these mistakes were spontaneous and not committed by an actual human being.

She voted early, and often.

I know FReepers joked about this happening, but...wow.

This is the prime example of why we need Voter ID laws in all fifty-seven states.

This is the woman, dead in her car in her garage for 6 years, undiscovered until her bank account ran dry.

According to a report in the Detroit Free Press, records show Farrenkopf as voting in the November 2010 gubernatorial election.

My bet (8 to 5) is that she receives all kinds of benefits as well.. :)

[moovova]

The dead voter.

Get over it.

it may represent an administrative error.

What the ... kind of administrative error could that be -- zombie voting??

[cripplecreek]

I’m still most interested in the neighbor who mowed her lawn for years without question.

[Darksheare]

Yeah, it’s always the fault of nobody.

[Charles Martel]

I find it interesting that someone even bothered to check this.

[WayneS]

What difference at this point does it make?

Exactly. Probably well paid. Very well paid.
