Prosecutors charge Swedish man for putting dead companion in a freezer and cashing in her pension
STOCKHOLM (AP) — Prosecutors have charged a 55-year-old Swedish man with fraud and falsifying records for putting his dead female companion in a freezer and cashing in her pension. Officials did not identify the man, but the resulting fraud, they said, involved about $119,500. The man had told investigators that he had put the Norwegian woman in a freezer after he found her dead in their home. Prosecutors have not ruled out that someone else was involved.
