New Boston Police posted a news release today, Wednesday, describing an unbelievable scene at a home in the 1200 block of South Merrill in New Boston. The skeletal remains of a man's son, in the kitchen of his home, have reportedly been there since 2018. The remains were discovered on Tuesday, March 29.

It's really hard to imagine why things like this happen, and we always ask the question; is it happening more, or is it because in the information age, we hear about it more? We will leave those questions to the sociologists, all we know is, these stories leave us with our minds completely bamboozled.
