You'd think they'dve started their search there..

Woman missing for four years... found in the last place they'd ever look?:

NEW YORK — The remains of a woman reported missing four years ago were found in her New York City home after the new owner sent a cleaning crew to the house.

Until last week, no one apparently knew what happened to 83-year-old Florence Bock. She was found on Friday, said police Sgt. Carlos Nieves.

The house in the Bronx was purchased recently by a developer after the missing woman was declared dead, police said.

The cleaning crew found Bock's remains — a pile of bones, including a skull, lying next to a cane.

The medical examiner's office was expected to examine the bones Sunday for clues to how she may have died. Investigators said they do not believe Bock's death was suspicious.

Now who was the Sherlock Holmes who didn't think to look in her own home when she turned up missing?

Just a thought.
