This reminds me of a story where a man was found mummified in an apartment .
He had died in his chair watching television but wasn't discovered for a year . The television was still on .

what a weird world we live in. though it is not a crime to die from old age, the police will charge the also elderly daughter with theft of the money the mother received. apparently the daughter didnt know she was old enough to qualify for her own benefits. just so strange, but actually typical for florida.

The daughter is a year away from being eligible for s.s.
....and why shouldn't she be charged with grand theft? S.S. ends the minute you die. That's the problem with this stupid government program and why I don't understand how so many people want it anyway.
Imagine had the Mother paid into a 401K for her working years? Daughter would have the remainder of the money, but nope, s.s. you die and your heirs get nothing.
My Mother died 3 days after her s.s. was deposited to her account for the month and s.s. took the money away.
