A 60-year-old man in Florida, Michael Eugene Sticken, is in jail after his mother's remains were found on his living room couch. Deputies were called to the residence in January when family members tried to contact Sticken's mother, Joyce Willis, but he had been rebuffing their attempts. When the deputy arrived, he noticed a foul odor and found two couches pushed together with blankets on top. Underneath the blankets was a decomposed body that was estimated to have been dead for one to four months. Sticken told deputies that he had not been responsible for his mother's death and called her his "best friend." Investigators found significant cause to charge him with grand theft and failure to report a death after reviewing bank records showing all of Willis' monthly $1,400 social security payments had been withdrawn by Sticken. Sticken was booked into jail on a $6,000 bond.
