A body lay undiscovered under a sofa in a sheltered flat in Bristol for nearly 10 years, an inquest has heard. The dead man, Dennis Pring, had been living with city council tenant Alan Derrick, who has learning difficulties. The inquest heard Mr Derrick did not want to tell the authorities that Mr Pring, 73, had died because he was worried he would be evicted. The coroner recorded an open verdict into Mr Pring's death at the hearing in Flax Bourton, near Bristol. Mr Pring is believed to have died at some point between April and June 1998.
A year after the death, a mobile council warden was called to inspect the flat after complaints of a terrible smell. Sandra Wedlock put the source of the smell that neighbors had complained about down to an overflowing toilet and no further action was taken by the council.
Mr Pring's skeleton was finally discovered by council cleaning staff in 2008 after Mr Derrick moved out of the property. No criminal charges were brought against Mr Derrick.
Holy shit. How do you not realize the dead guy is missing for 10 years? This other guy must have had no other friends because how can you not notice that raunchy stink. Like, I'm pretty sure if you're at your friends house, you would notice a decomposing human under the couch. Dude probably smelled like burnt hair with baby poop diahrea. I mean I guess after a year, 1999 rolled around, and you just got a pile of bones. I understand this guy is mentally challenged but, CMON! That's fucking disgusting. Even retards know you get buried in the ground. My apartment is dirty and full of dieseases to the point where I might as well live outside but, if there was a dead guy in my living room, he's getting kicked to the curb. I would get him the fuck out and hand santizer the shit out of myself.
