 Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
I just read this...  |  |  |  | Quote: THE HAGUE: Relatives took literally a Dutch man's instructions not to be disturbed when he went to his bedroom: They let him alone and his body was found in bed four years later, police said Wednesday. The man, 50 at the time of his death, lived with four siblings aged between 44 and 71 in the northern village of Minnertsga. "He was used to being obeyed and very quick to anger," police spokesman Wouter De Vries said. "Four years ago he told his brothers and sisters he didn't want to be disturbed and went to his bedroom. Though they frequently passed by the bedroom door, no one dared to open it and look in, de Vries said. The body was only discovered when the landlords decided some work needed doing in the room. "A decomposing body produces a very strong smell, and it's really remarkable that his brothers and sisters don't seem to have noticed anything," the police spokesman said, while adding that crime was not suspected for the moment.

 Re: Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
Wow. I think those people should face charges. There's no way they didn't know he had died. Or at least that something had happened to him. He might have had a bad temper, but that was just wrong.

 Re: Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
I think it's really sad when I hear of bodies that weren't discovered for a long time. They must have been truly alone in the world to be left so along and not have anyone try to contact them.
His brothers and sisters must not have cared about him at all.

l feel the same way. Well said Suedehead.

 Re: Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
Something fishy is going on. I've had a personal experience in discovering a dead body, and they do smell. However, this was a fresh corpse and the smell wasn't too bad, but it was strong. If we didn't find out about him until the next day, the sun would have started to magnify the stench. Since we have no idea how big the room is, it's possible he could have died inside and since the room is both dark and large, the smell wouldn't have traveled far (at least to the door). But my problem is that I don't believe they didn't opened the door. If the room was smaller, it's possible the stench could have traveled even farther, going into the connecting room. I guess my point is that you'd probably smell something unless the room was airtight. And I've never been in a house like that. There are cracks under the doors too.

 Re: Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
Wow, that's crazy! You'd think that one of his siblings would at least wonder why he hasn't come out of his room at all and check on him. . .

 Re: Man 'who wanted to be left alone' was dead for four years
That's horrible! How can you totally just disregard your sibling for four whole years, let alone not even notice the smell of a decomposing body. Ah...

My thoughts exactly. They should at least made sure he was eating, etc, I can't believe the stupidity of this story.
