~ EXCERPT ~

A former real estate agent drove with the partially mummified body of a homeless woman in the passenger seat of her car for between three and 10 months, according to a report.

The grim discovery was made after the car was left partially blocking a driveway in Costa Mesa, Calif., on Monday and the police were called, the Orange County Register reported.

When the officers arrived, they noticed a foul smell coming from inside the vehicle, a 1997 Mercury Marquis, and then saw a leg poking out from a pile of clothes used to conceal the body.

They smashed a window and found the body, along with a box of baking soda which had been used to reduce the odor.

"This person was somewhat used to the smell," Costa Mesa Police Sgt. Ed Everett said.

The 57-year-old former real estate agent said she had been too afraid to call the police after she found the body of the woman, the Register reported.

As I looked closer... I realized the lady in the back seat was a full size blow up doll in a blonde wig... LMAO!

That was Lazamataz trying to hit it.

How would you like to have been a home buyer riding around with her on a hot Saturday afternoon looking at listings?

That was my first thought ~ the second was that HOV-2 is only going to encourage this sort of thing.

HOV-3 or HOV-4 is definitely the target when it comes to live commuters.

Guess they don’t have to worry about the passenger side airbag deploying.

Either a Social Security sham or an attempt to cross the border with drugs in the mummified body.

Some real estate agents just don’t give up.

She was just waiting for the election. The Dems need all the votes they can get.
