in ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’ scam while hiding her body at home

The 56-year-old man, who was not identified, carried out the ruse after his mom died three years ago

Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera reported.






The con artist’s mother, Graziella Dall’Oglio, passed away at 82 years old and her son never reported her death.

He instead stuffed her corpse in a sleeping bag and stashed it in the laundry room at their home, the outlet reported.

By the time authorities found Dall’Oglio, her body had mummified, according to the reports.


All the while, her son meticulously impersonated each detail of his mother down to her makeup and continued to cash her pension. He was even able to renew her identity card at a government office on the outskirts of Mantua after her death, the outlet reported.

With his mother’s pension and a property portfolio of three houses,
the son was able to pocket roughly according to the newspaper.

Authorities said he underwent a “Mrs. Doubtfire-style transformation,” in reference to the 1993 flick in which Robin Williams plays a recently divorced comedian who opts to pose as the perfect housekeeper in order to see his children while trying to ward off his ex’s new beau.

But an eagle-eyed government employee finally picked up on his scheme after noticing his apparently “masculine” features, including his low voice and “thick” neck, the outlet reported.

The employee notified authorities, who compared photos of Dall’Oglio and her son and realized he’d been conning them.


The son allowed authorities to search his home, where they uncovered Dall’Oglio’s body, though officials didn’t suspect any foul play contributed to her death.

“She probably died of natural causes but that will be established by the postmortem. It is a very strange story and very, very sad,” Francesco Aporti, the mayor of Borgo Virgilio, told the newspaper.


An official autopsy has not concluded yet, according to the outlet.

The son is being investigated for illegally concealing a body and benefit fraud. It’s not immediately clear if he was arrested.

The Italians are bad eggs -
they were poor soldiers in WW2 -
even Hitler disowned them and then they changed sides
when the Allies were winning.

It has been well established practice in some parts of Italy (and the rest of Europe) for hundreds of years.

Mafia-Vatican Italy didn't really feel comfortable about having to choose sides between it's two hitmen in Germany & France.

Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful,
and sharper than any twoedged sword,
piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,
and of the joints and marrow,
and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13  Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:
but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.


Many men do not believe in the authority and power of our creator.

That is OK.

God allows us to make choices......for ourselves.

And throughout Holy scripture, God informs us,
that he, God, understands what is in our heart.


John 10:27
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28  And I give unto them eternal life;
and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.


Scripture [KJV] informs my world.


God understands, why men do, what they do......

Deuteronomy 8:2
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years
in the wilderness,
to humble thee,
and to prove thee,
to know what was in thine heart,
whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.


Isaiah 55:8
For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.


Isaiah 58:2
Yet they seek me daily,
and delight to know my ways,
as a nation that did righteousness,
and forsook not the ordinance of their God:
they ask of me the ordinances of justice;
they take delight in approaching to God.
