A Pennsylvania woman allegedly shot both of her elderly parents in the head before mutilating their bodies with a chainsaw over the course of nine days, officials said.
Verity Beck, 49, was charged with double homicide after police found her parents, Reid and Miriam Beck, in “different stages of dismemberment,” Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin R. Steele said Wednesday.
An autopsy found that the couple, both in their 70s, was each shot once in the head at close range.
Police found the graphic scene at 10:30 p.m. Tuesday after Verity’s brother called for police to conduct a wellness check on the Jenkintown home on Beverly Road. Family members said they had not heard the couple’s voices since Jan. 7.
Upon entering the home, officers were struck by the overpowering stench of decomposing bodies and immediately found Reid, who was “wrapped in a white sheet and comforter.”

I feel sorry for the police and all those who have to witness and clean up after. Must haunt them forever 🙏
I have a cousin that worked a metro fire department including paramedic most of his life.
Explained that they carried a big scoop shovel to clean up the really messy ones. He said it’s bad when the decomposed body seeps through the hardwood floor and through the ceiling of the apartment below.
Not a job for me!

“I Dismember Mama”
Shocked, shocked I tell you
I’m in awe of people like your cousin. I don’t know how they do it. I’d be traumatized forever.
TCM, the original, was far better than any of the Saw movies.

When I first moved to Abington Township, a friendly supermarket stockboy told me they sold a lot of gefilta fish and catfish to area shoppers, if you understand the meaning.
“Police must dread doing a wellness check.” I know I did when I was a cop.
The only thing I dreaded worse were domestic calls. The arrests. The paperwork. The unpredictable nature and potential for violence. A real pain in the neck.
Nine days? Should have been able to buck the old folks up in less than an hour, certainly, even with one of those little toy homeowner-type saws. Maybe if she had frozen them first?
Well…. Isn’t SHE just a peach…
