Man takes mum’s corpse to withdraw money from bank

A man allegedly took his dead mum’s body to a bank in a wheel chair and deceitfully withdrew her money.

David Vanzo is being investigated for “elderly neglect and financial exploitation” of his mum, Caryl Vanzo, following the alleged incident.

It has been alleged that Davido Vanzo withdrew $850 from his mum’s account and police are investigating whether he brought his mum already dead to withdraw her month from Wells Fargo in Plymouth, Minnesota.

David Vanzo called 911 on Monday, January 5 to report his mum's death seven hours after he withdrew the money.

Police statement revealed that staff at the bank said Mrs Vanzo "did not move" and that they "couldn't tell if she was breathing."

Neighbors who saw the mother and son get in a taxi to go to the bank told police they wondered if Caryl was dead or unconscious. Witnesses at the bank said Caryl's feet kept dragging under her wheelchair.

Officers said the stench of urine and feces was overwhelming in Vanzo's home when the got to the house. Her body was wrapped in a robe, fur coat and boots covered in excrement.
