    Woman lived with dead roommate

    Woman allegedly lived with dead roommate
    The Associated Press
    Article Last Updated: 03/08/2007 03:27:24 PM MST


    CANTON TOWNSHIP, Mich.- A 28-year-old woman may have kept the body of her roommate in their apartment for up to three weeks, police said. An anonymous caller told police in Wayne County's Canton Township on Tuesday night that the woman was living in the apartment with her dead roommate.
    "Our detectives knocked at the door and the woman opened it and there is that odor, and you know right away what it is," Detective Rick Pomorski told The Detroit News.

    The body of the woman, believed to be in her 20s, was found covered by items of clothing on the living room floor. The 28-year-old tenant was cooperative with police and accompanied them to headquarters for questioning. She is not under arrest, Pomorski said.

    "She knew her roommate was there lying on the living room floor," the detective said. "She did give us a story as to her reasonings. We are hesitant to detail that now. We will be piecing everything together and expect to have better answers when we hear from the medical examiner."

    Police said they tentatively identified the victim, but declined to release a name.

    Canton PD: Woman Kept Roommate's Corpse to Get Money
    By Associated Press
    March 8, 2007

    CANTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — A woman kept the body of her roommate in their apartment for three weeks so she could get money from her dead roommate's parents, police said.

    Drugs could have been a factor in the death of Ashley Ann Pierce, according to the Wayne County medical examiner's office and information police obtained from Pierce's family and witnesses. Foul play doesn't appear to be involved in the 19-year-old's death, but autopsy results likely will be completed next week, Canton Township police Sgt. Rick Pomorski told the Detroit Free Press in a story published on its Web site Thursday.

    Pomorski said the roommate pretended to be Pierce so she could get money from Pierce's father. Money was sent, but Pomorski declined to say how much.

    Police received an anonymous tip Tuesday night and found Pierce's body covered by items of clothing on the living-room floor of the apartment in Canton Township, west of Detroit.

    The 28-year-old roommate cooperated with police and went with them to the station for questioning. Police declined to release her name and said she was not under arrest.

    Re: Woman lived with dead roommate

    CANTON TOWNSHIP -- A desire for drugs was so strong a 28-year-old Canton Township woman spent three weeks scamming nearly $2,000 from the father of her dead roommate while the body rotted in their apartment under a heap of clothes, police said.

    Adding a macabre twist to a tale that's horrified neighbors, police on Thursday said the woman used the drug-related death of her 19-year-old roommate to extort money from her father in northern Michigan, said Detective Sgt. Rick Pomorski.

    &quot;She was doing this for financial gain, calling the father and saying, 'Hey your daughter needs money.' She was acquiring the money in an effort to buy more drugs,&quot; Pomorski said. &quot;The father was sending the money for his daughter while she was dead.&quot;

    Police are talking to prosecutors about possible charges, Pomorski said. An autopsy Thursday indicated drugs contributed to the death of Ashley Ann Pierce, but didn't reveal whether an overdose, if it occurred, was accidental or suicide. Foul play isn't suspected.

    Medical examiners ordered more tests to make an official determination because of the body's condition.

    Pomorski characterized the 28-year-old as a &quot;drug user&quot; who has cooperated with police since officers responding to an anonymous tip found the body late Tuesday.

    Neighbors at the Heathmoore Apartments near Haggerty and Interstate 275 said the roommates sometimes borrowed money without returning it. None expected anything like this, and few, it seemed, noticed any tell-tale odors.

    &quot;How the body was there for a month, I have no idea,&quot; said Steven Reifler, who said the 28-year-old briefly worked at a nearby Tim Hortons coffee shop for a few days last month.

    Across the courtyard from Pierce's apartment, other neighbors stood outside Thursday afternoon to speculate and commiserate about the case.

    &quot;It's more of a surprise than a shock, but it's hard to explain,&quot; said Nate Brown, 13, who has lived in the complex sporadically for about five years.

    &quot;I never thought I'd see anything like this in my life. It's a silent community. Nothing unusual happens.&quot;

    The 28-year-old, whom police are not naming, has no mental illness or physical problems, Pomorski said.

    Re: Woman lived with dead roommate

    Her page keeps freezing my laptop so i couldn't link the drugs or mother thing. But her blog was about her karma..

    Was the person she was living with her girlfriend then?

    As for her scamming Ashley's father is sickening,why didn't he ask to speak to his daughter?

    I can't believe the dad gave the roommate almost $2,000.00 in a month without insisting to speak to his daughter.

    I took this to mean she disguised her voice on the phone (?)

    A bit strange that a 28-year-old was living with a 19-year-old.

    I can't believe her body was rotting under clothes in her room.&nbsp; Obviously the roommate had to have gone in there, found her dead, and piled clothes on top of her.&nbsp; Sick fuck.&nbsp; I bet someone else had to know about this.

    Jon Thomas sat in his Canton Township apartment Thursday appalled that one of his neighbors had kept her dead roommate's body inside her apartment for three weeks so, police say, she could scam the dead woman's father out of money to pay for her drug habit.
    &quot;What I don't understand is how you could live in that apartment for three weeks with a decomposing body,&quot; said Thomas, 19.

    Canton police said the roommate did not report the death of Ashley Ann Pierce, 19, so she could impersonate Pierce over the phone to Pierce's father and request money, which he sent.

    &quot;This girl took advantage of the situation to get money from the father,&quot; Canton Police Sgt. Rick Pomorski said.

    Thomas said the two women were reclusive. He said he tried to offer a friendly greeting to the roommate shortly after they moved in about two months ago but got a dirty look he said reeked of &quot;who the hell are you?&quot;

    After receiving an anonymous tip Tuesday night, police went to the Heathmoore Apartments near Ford and Haggerty roads about 11:30 p.m. and found Pierce's 28-year-old roommate continuing to live in the dwelling with Pierce's body on the floor.

    They also found a small quantity of suspected heroin, police said.

    &quot;A 28-year-old Canton woman scammed nearly $2,000 from the father of a roommate who had died -- in the living room under a pile of laundry -- for three weeks by claiming the girl needed money, police alleged.&quot;

    In the living room??&nbsp; Not even hidden in a bedroom...just right out there.
