Shocking details are coming to light regarding the case of the 62-year-old woman who buried her mother in Boeotia. It is recalled that the 62-year-old director of the Oinofyta Citizens’ Service Centers returned home yesterday afternoon, as she was released by the Thebes prosecutor, where she was transferred shortly before 1 PM on Monday. The 62-year-old is accused of burying her mother’s body with the help of a foreign worker, in order to continue receiving both her pension and disability benefits.
Boeotia: “She told me she had gone to her sister’s in Mandra” – What the 62-year-old’s aunt reveals
Specifically, the 62-year-old’s aunt spoke on ANT1’s television show “To Proino” and referred to an incident that occurred in 2020, when she had taken the mother and brought her to a care facility. The elderly woman didn’t want to stay there, but to return to her home, while in the following years she was completely neglected by her daughter, who wouldn’t even give her water at times. The 62-year-old’s aunt initially stated: “Why was she released? What will she do now that she’s free? Why would she kill her mother? Had her mother done nothing for her? I am not a judge, I don’t judge her, God will judge her.” The woman would ask the 62-year-old where her mother was: “She told me she had gone to her sister’s in Mandra. But then she called the ambulance and came and we said what happened to the woman (the 62-year-old’s mother), they took her to an institution, to a nursing home. The ambulance had the name of the institution written on it.”
When asked about when the ambulance took the woman, the 62-year-old’s aunt pointed out: “It was probably in 2020. She had developed dementia and didn’t like going there and was screaming, wailing inside.” “Her legs hurt a little, and if she (the elderly woman) spoke, her daughter would curse at her. ‘I cut off her food because she was eating too much and the doctor told me she needed to lose weight,’ she (the 62-year-old) told me, and I’m learning now that she had locked the refrigerator, not even allowing her to drink water, because she was wetting herself.”
Leon on Boeotia case: There’s a serious possibility she buried her alive
Earlier, forensic pathologist Grigoris Leon spoke Tuesday morning on ANT1 about whether the forensic examination of the 62-year-old KEP director’s mother’s body, which is expected, will be able to provide answers regarding the causes of death. “From a forensic investigation of a buried person over a period of years, you understand that we can have very few elements. We can have the skeleton, meaning we can see if there were skeletal injuries from violence, and from there we can also do some toxicological analyses that can tell us if there was a cause of death compatible with taking such substances. However, we must say that a large part of investigations, a large part of pathological and non-pathological causes of death will not be able to be found,” the forensic pathologist initially stated.
“The forensic examination will show if she had skeletal injuries and if she had been poisoned. A large part of pathological and non-pathological causes of death will not be able to be found. In the condition the body is in, it’s extremely likely that the cause of death cannot be answered and we’ll have an undetermined cause of death, excluding for example skeletal injuries or poisoning, but we won’t be able to attribute either the cause of death or the type of death, meaning whether it’s due to some pathology or some criminal act,” he added.
“A thorough investigation should be conducted much earlier. For me, we should see what prescriptions were being made for this woman through electronic prescribing, see if she had serious problems, if there were serious pathologies. It seems this will remain unanswered: Was this woman sure that her mother was dead when she buried her? How can she judge if she was in a coma? There’s a serious possibility she buried her alive. A citizen might see a citizen in a coma, something that can be reversed with appropriate medical care, and because they lack knowledge, think they’re dead,” Grigoris Leon concluded.
