A Detroit mother was so distraught over her daughter’s death, she decided to keep the woman’s body inside her home — covered in blankets — for months on end, a report says.

“There was never a smell. Never,” a neighbor explained.

Residents on Seabaldt Street, where the grieving mother lives, told FOX 2 they had no idea what was going on inside her four-family flat — located on Detroit’s west side.

“I’m totally shocked that this could happen in our community right across the street,” said one neighbor, who identified herself as Kimberly.

Sources told FOX that the woman’s 47-year-old daughter died last November, and her mother has been keeping her inside the home ever since.

“I know how bad she must feel,” said another neighbor, who didn’t want to be identified.

“I can go down there and relate to her.”

The mother reportedly covered her daughter’s body with blankets and used them to cover the windows, so no one could see in. While a cause of death has yet to be determined, neighbors said the daughter had health problems.

It’s a crime in Michigan to not report a death to police, but cops could let the mother go free due to the circumstances. It’s unclear how they found out about the body.

If the mother does get charged, she could face up to a year in jail or a $1,000 fine.
