James and Suzanne Agnew, a couple from Lakewood, Colorado, have been arrested for living with the corpse of their deceased friend for nearly two years. According to an affidavit, the couple used the deceased's Social Security payments, totaling approximately $17,000, during this period. The body was reportedly neglected to the extent that their pet Chihuahuas chewed on it. Authorities discovered the situation after investigating the couple's unusual financial activity and living conditions. The case has drawn attention due to the unusual and disturbing circumstances surrounding the prolonged concealment of the corpse and the fraudulent use of the victim's funds.
