Woman finds her husband's mummified corpse eight months after he went missing

A woman who was searching for the Christmas decorations found her missing husband's corpse stuffed in a closet eight months after he went missing.

Jennifer Maedge reported her husband Richard, 53, from Illinois, US, missing on April 27 last year after he phoned her to say he was leaving work early.

She came back home to discover his car on the driveway and headed inside and found his wallet, keys and cards in the house - but there was no sign of the dad-of-three.
