The woman's body was discovered by the Davidson County Sheriff's Office when deputies were serving an eviction notice.

Jolly lived in the apartment with her four children, all of whom are reportedly intellectually disabled. One of them said Jolly may have been in that position since 2018, according to police officials. The four of them have reportedly been living there since she died.

An investigation is underway after police reportedly found a Tennessee woman’s decomposing body in her apartment last week.

A Davidson County deputy reportedly made the grisly discovery on October 21 while serving an eviction notice at Laronda Jolly’s home in Nashville. WKRN obtained a 911 call in which the deputy told a dispatcher that Jolly’s body was located on a bed underneath a pile of clothes.

Jolly, 56, lived with her four adult children, who are reportedly all intellectually or developmentally disabled. One of the children said they believe Jolly died two years earlier, the news outlet reported.

DISPATCHER: “Metro Nashville police, fire and medical.”
CALLER: “Hey, this is Lt. Bogle with the Sheriff’s Office. How are you?”
DISPATCHER: “I’m good, how may I help you?”
CALLER: “Hey, we’re out on an eviction at 305 North Second Street.”


DISPATCHER: “Are you able to tell [an] age or gender?”
CALLER: “I’m gonna be honest with you, it’s covered up on the bed… who is this upstairs? That’s your mother? How long has she been deceased? Years? You don’t know how long she’s been deceased.”


The body was identified by investigators as 56-year-old Laronda Jolly. Metro police said her four, intellectually disabled adult children continued living in the apartment after her death, as her body remained in the bed.

CALLER: “So evidently she’s been dead a long time up there. They’ve just got clothes and stuff piled up on top of her.”
DISPATCHER: “Somebody piled clothes on top of her?”
CALLER: “Yeah, they say she’s been deceased for some years up here in this bed.”
