MOUNT LAUREL, New Jersey - 
Stunning news this morning out of New Jersey, as reports of police discovering the body of a young woman under a motel bed have been confirmed. The owners of the motel asked that their name and location be omitted from news reports to protect their business.
The body, which has yet to be identified, was found by a person staying in the room.
“I dropped the television remote, and when I went to check under the bed I found her. It was like something out of a scary movie,” said Aaron Silver, the man staying in the room.
According to initial reports by the medical examiner on-scene, it appears as though the body lay undisturbed in the room for about 5 years. There was a normal amount of rot and decay on the body to suggest that it had not been moved or touched over the course of that time.
The motel has not made a comment about the issue but have told police that they are constantly cleaning their rooms and have no idea how this could have slipped beneath the cracks.
“I clean that room every day. I noticed a smell several times, and told my manager,” said Anita Rodriguez, a housekeeper at the motel. “He told me to just use extra Febreeze in the room and it would go away eventually. I always hated cleaning that room.”
Motel representatives say that all their rooms are cleaned daily, but that it is not the policy of the company to make their housekeepers check under the beds.
“They do a heavy clean of the rooms to sanitize for guests, but when it comes to under the beds, they just run the vacuum around the edges. Who really looks under the bed, anyway? No reason to waste anyone’s time,” said Charles Dyson, a representative of the motel chain.
“It’s the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen,” said police chief Joe Goldsmith. “I’ve seen a lot of strange things in my time on the force, but to think about all the people who’ve stayed in this room, with a dead body beneath them, and they didn’t know about it? It gives me the heebie-jeebies.”
Police have seized room and occupant records for the last several years, and are trying to trace the person or persons who may have stayed in the room around the time of death.
“Funny thing is, the records also show literally almost 1,000 complaints from people who stayed in the room over the years. Everything from a bad smell to an ‘eerie feeling.’ Several people even asked to switch rooms in the middle of the night,” said Goldsmith. “The motel really should have checked out that room a little more closely.”
The body of the young woman is set for autopsy at the end of the week.

 Body Found, Ypsilanti Township

YPSILANTI TWP. (WWJ) - Two men are facing charges in Washtenaw County after police say they called a taxi to help dispose of a woman’s body.
Police say the whole situation unfolded last Saturday morning when a man contacted BWB Transportation and requested a ride to the 2700 block of Golfside Road in Ypsilanti Township.
A taxi driver responded to the man’s location in Ypsilanti and waited as he came out carrying an unknown object that he placed in the back of the van.
The driver took the man to Golfside Road and called her boss, 47-year-old Derrick Campbell, after he exited the vehicle “because of her concern as to what was placed in the rear of the car.”
Campbell arrived and began talking with man, police said, and apparently learned that he was trying to dispose of a body. But instead of intervening, police say Campbell actually helped the man remove the body from the taxi and conceal it alongside the road.
At that time, the taxi driver realized what was going on, drove away from the area and called 911, police said.
Officers responded to the scene and found the body of 21-year-old Mira Dressel, of Ypsilanti, concealed under a bush. At that time, both Campbell and the other man were taken into custody.
On Monday, Campbell was arraigned on multiple charges, including concealing the death of an individual, attempted concealing the death of an individual, conspiracy to commit concealing the death of an individual and failing to report the discovery of a dead body.
The other man, who police believe was acquainted with Campbell, is expected to be arraigned on similar charges Tuesday.
Events leading up to the discovery of Dressel’s body are still under investigation. A cause of death was not immediately released.
