A woman was caught driving with a dead passenger riding shotgun in her car thanks to a minor scrape with a parked scooter. At first, it all seemed like a minor traffic accident, but it all took a dark turn when witnesses smelled a foul odor emanating from the car, and noticed that the passenger was swollen and completely still. Emergency responders arrived and confirmed everyone’s suspicions: the passenger had died long before the collision. Let’s hear more.

Witness
Saw the dead person
Her mouth has hanging open, and her face was swollen. You could tell right away. It smelled like a decomposing body.

Witness
Saw the dead person
I didn’t dare get too close. I just took a peek. She was… lying there. The seat was reclined.

Tung Sheng-che
Police officer
The passenger, Ms. Chi, was clearly dead. Paramedics determined there was no need to take her to the hospital. The cause of death is under investigation.

Kao Ta-cheng
Forensic pathologist
She must have been dead for at least 30 minutes. She presented livor mortis, so it must have been more than 30 minutes, maybe even an hour, before she was loaded on the car.

The morbid scene took place on Zhonghe Road in Pingtung’s Xinyuan Township. The car driver was a 62-year-old woman, and the deceased passenger was her disabled daughter, aged 37. The two had set off on a trip from Taoyuan on July 1, joined by the driver’s elder sister. They stopped in Tainan, before heading to Kaohsiung on July 2 and finally making their way to Pingtung on July 9. They were allegedly heading to an outing at Donglong Temple when the disturbing situation was discovered.
