Finding Women in Your Closet and Other Hazards of Never Cleaning.

June 2, 2008

No, not “Finding In the Closet Women”… this has nothing to do with that kind of closet, but a literal closet. From Reuters:

A Japanese man who was mystified when food kept disappearing from his kitchen, set up a hidden camera and found an unknown woman living secretly in his closet, Japanese media said Friday.

The 57-year-old unemployed man of Fukuoka in southern Japan called police Wednesday when the camera sent pictures to his mobile phone of an intruder in his home while he was out on Wednesday, the Asahi newspaper said on its Website.

Officers rushed to the house and found a 58-year-old unemployed woman hiding in an unused closet, where she had secreted a mattress and plastic drink bottles, the Asahi said. Police suspect she may have been there for several months, the paper said.

“I didn’t have anywhere to live,” the Nikkan Sports tabloid quoted the woman as telling police.

I am honestly not sure how you wouldn’t notice this… Just to be safe I have check all the unused areas of my home and no “guests” were found. I should mention that what the article does not tell you is that the man later remembered this woman was his wife.
