He kept his dead mother in his freezer
Full story here:
LA CROSSE, Wis. - A recluse who kept his dead mother in his freezer and shot at his neighbors when they came to his door was sentenced to seven years in prison Monday.
Philip Schuth, 53, was sentenced for attempted homicide, reckless endangerment and concealment of a corpse.
Schuth told investigators that his mother died of natural causes in 2000, and an autopsy confirmed that. Schuth, who never had held a real job, said he hid her death because he was afraid authorities would blame him and because he wanted to keep collecting her Social Security checks.
