From Monday's UK Daily Mail - surreal....:

BODY LOST BEHIND A BOOKCASE FOR A FORTNIGHT

The body of a woman missing for two weeks was found wedged upside-down behind a bookcase in her room. Mariesa Weber, 38, became trapped as she reached behind the 6-foot high bookcase to adjust a plug for her television.

Her family spent a fortnight searching for her, fearing she had been kidnapped,
Posters were distributed around New Port Richey, Florida, where she lived with her parents and younger sister Gia. Miss Weber, who was only 5 ft 3 ins and weighed seven stone, is believed to have suffocated.

Her body was eventually discovered when her sister noticed a foot protruding from behind the bookcase. Her mother, Corinne,said: 'I'm sleeping in the same house as her for 11 days, looking for her. And she's right in the bedroom.'

Mrs Weber said that they had noticed a strange smell from her room, but had blamed it on rats. She added: 'She's a little thing and the bookcase is six feet tall and solid. It seems she just couldn't get out.'
