CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- Police said Wednesday they believe the dying pleas of a neglected, elderly woman were echoed by her parrot as they combed through her fetid home.
Police Lt. Eric Bonnette said the bird mimicked the plaintive words of 98-year-old Anne Copeland, haunting authorities as they searched the house, which reeked of rotting flesh and animal feces.
"Once we pulled the blanket from over him he would keep saying, 'Help. Help.' And then he would laugh," Bonnette said. They believe the laughter was an imitation of Copeland's adult daughter, who was charged with abuse and neglect resulting in death of a vulnerable adult.

Wow that is both disturbing and sounds a lot like the plot of a cheesy murder mystery...

"the parrot, belonging to a Dr. Herbert West, was recovered from the house with no sign of Dr. West, except for a strong musty odor and some very muddy footprints."
