Landscaper on mower runs over, scatters homeless woman sleeping in California park

A homeless mother sleeping in a California park was killed last week after she was run over by a lawnmower — and investigators left “chunks” of her body strewn across the grass, her family claims.
Christine Chavez, 27, was lying in the tall grass of Beard Brook Park in Modesto around noon on July 8 when an employee riding a John Deere tractor with a pull-behind mower swept the area.
quote:
The unidentified worker said he didn’t see the sleeping woman until he “noticed a body in the grass he had already made a pass through,” Modesto police said.
The employee called 911, but Chavez was pronounced dead at the scene.
Family members said their grief has been compounded by what they called a disrespectful, botched clean-up.
“They left big chunks of her all over the place, just covered up with the grass,” the victim’s sister Rosalinda told Fox 40.
quote:
Chavez’s father, Christopher, said he was able to pocket pieces of his daughter’s bones, skull and teeth in the days after her death.
quote:
Chavez, who has a 9-year-old daughter, had been transient for the last three or four years and often slept at the park, which was officially acquired by nearby E&J Gallo Winery the day before the tragic death, according to the Modesto Bee.

Amazing how much the family cares once her value has been increased due to her death.

Will be alot more of this when we swap to electric tractors.

Not saying i have any idea of the actual happening but i would imagine if you had mowed this area multiple times, you probably just get lost in your thoughts and just follow the lines.
So if the grass was high, i can actually see how a person laying in the tall grass might not be noticed

Why wasn’t she sleeping where her father, sister, or daughter was? Why are they so concerned now and not while she was sleeping in a field?

This is what happens when you allow the homeless to camp wherever they want

We need real time “mower reform” bills.
It’s long overdue that we get these dangerous items off the streets.

If this guy loses his job we could use his help mowing Seigen Lane

I’m skeptical that she was alive prior to being hit.

Especially if you’re in a tractor pulling a bush hog, which is what it sounds like according to the description.

Yep. There’s a chance she was already dead, then the tractor hit her.

Being bush-hogged is a new one.
