Monica Cameroni de Adams, a homeless woman in San Diego, tragically died after sustaining severe injuries from a drunk driver. Her van was towed, and no checks were made before sending it to an impound lot. Her family alleges negligence, stating that the city and towing company failed to notice her inside the vehicle, despite her being visibly injured. Her remains were discovered a month later, stemming from an investigation following her family's missing person report.
"The death was proximately caused by leaving her alone, struggling with her injuries inside of her car, entombing her in her car, taking her car to the tow yard and leaving her there to die," the family's lawyer John Carpenter told CBS 8.
Cameroni de Adams' badly decomposed remains were only discovered a month later, on Dec. 6, 2023, when a yard worker reported to cops a 'pungent smell' coming from the van.
