BENEDICT CANYON, CALIF.–Former B-movie siren Yvette Vickers was found dead last week at her home here. Her mummified body appears to have gone undiscovered for months, police said. Vickers was 82. A neighbor discovered her body in an upstairs room of her home and the state of her remains indicates she may have died more than a year ago. Thanks to our buddy Tom for the heads up. |
