I was wondering how they could have missed her 6 months ago but if she was a real hoarder then I can visualise it crashing down on her. Poor woman.
Her sister is probably traumatised by these events. R.I.P. MOO

This is just so sad and horrifying. A reminder that we may never really know what is going on with someone.

Officers had been to the residence twice before over the past six months — once to remove pets from the apartment — but did not find Sakash, the NYPD said Thursday.

Incredibly sad

I read they brought k9 dogs to look for her but the dogs did not find her in her own house. It’s heartbreaking.
Also her mother who I believe lived w her died in April 2020 and I think she got really depressed and is spiraled from there. It really is heartbreaking. I think it was a combination of everything.
