A Florida man was arrested after unsuccessfully trying to convince cops that a disembowled corpse was in fact a blow-up doll with human flesh, according to reports.

Jerome Wright, 32, was taken into custody and charged Friday in the death of his 52-year-old girlfriend Deanna Clendinen, the Miami Herald reported. He is accused of deadly abuse on a human body.

Police said that his mom, Della Rosalie Wright, called 911 complaining Friday of the stench inside her house in Northwest Miami-Dade. She told authorities that she lives with her 32-year-old son.

Authorities arrived and interviewed Jerome Wright who said that “whatever was in his room was not real,” WFOR-TV reported.

He reportedly told police that “there was a life size blow-up doll in the closet, and that the doll is made of flesh.”

Wright also claimed that he had not seen his girlfriend in five months.

Clendinen’s body was discovered concealed under sheets and clothing in one of the closets, according to investigators.

Authorities said that her stomach had been lacerated and her organs were found in a trash bin behind the house.

Police have ordered an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
