Residents had reported the presence of maggots and flies to Peabody Group"within weeks" of the August date she had last been confirmed alive, but the housing association closed the case the month after. "We didn't ask the most fundamental question - is Sheila ok?" said Peabody's chief executive, Ian McDermott."I am so sorry this happened," he said."We've apologised to the family. We're deeply sorry for what happened.

"The biggest apology though I think does go to the residents of Lord's Court. They did tell us that something was wrong."

Peabodys licence should be taken off them 😡

Oh man I remember cleaning up after a stint like that. Not even showering gets rid of the after smell.
