Fla Man Charged in Ilegal Dumping of Roomate's Body


Police say that Donald Christopher Richert tossed the body of his live-in lover, into a dumpster at the Volusia County landfill, to support his drug habit.

Michael Bobo whose decomposed remains were found by workers on May 19, had been dead for some time. It is reported that Bobo had hepatitis C and Aids, and had been in failing health.

Allegedly, Richert wrapped Bobo's body in plastic and turned up the air conditioning in their trailer to quell the stench of the body. Authorities say Richert eventually sold Bobo's trailer for $600.

I don't know much about drug use, but judging by the marks on Richert's face in his photo indicates to me that he is a junkie. One question I would ask of Richert is if he truly loved or care for Bobo. Most people would not do their worst enemy, what he did to him,even after death. If Bobo were in terminal phase, why did he not choose the option of living in an assisted living facility? This story puts new meaning to the phrase "crack kills".
