‘Mrs. Doubtfire’: Man dresses like dead mom to collect her pension, while corpse grows old

Another biological man has dressed up like a woman, but this time it’s not for the typical reason. This incident involves a man posing as his own mother to collect her pension – all after she had died.

According to The Telegraph in the U.K., the alleged crime has been dubbed to as the “Mrs. Doubtfire” scandal, a reference to the 1993 hit film starring Robin Williams portraying an elderly housekeeper.

An unemployed 56-year-old Italian man allegedly dressed up as his dead mother, including lipstick and pearl necklace, as a means to collect her pension.

According to a report in Italy’s Corriere della Sera newspaper, the out-of-work nurse managed to pocket thousands of euros before the ruse was exposed.

In addition, he allegedly concealed his mother’s body in his home, so long so that it became mummified. The woman, Graziella Dall’Oglio, is said to have died three years ago.
