    The decomposing bodies of a New York woman and her boyfriend have been found after weeks after what police suspect is a murder-suicide.

    The Daily Beast reports that a downstairs neighbor in a Bronx apartment building complained of maggots dropping through the ceiling. Authorities turned up at the home, where they found both bodies heavily decomposed. They were almost unrecognizable.

    Ducille's dead body was found on the couch in the living room, while the unidentified man's body was on the floor nearby with a gun next to it. An autopsy will be conducted on each victim to determine their causes of death.

    The neighbor reports hearing two loud gunshots coming from the apartment unit, on Nov. 6, followed by a loud thud.

    The victim was later identified as Ashley Ducille, a sex worker. She had four children. The New York Daily News says that Ducille was a victim of domestic violence and that she regularly asked her superintendent to change the locks on her doors out of fear of the boyfriend.

    However, the superintendent said that he did not stop his harassment of Ducille and would often hang around outside her door or climb the fire escape to get to her. "That guy—he would not move from there until she opened the door," Ernesto Garcia said, adding that he had seen Ducille "bruised up" with swollen hands.

    That was the last time they ever spoke.

    "The shock hasn't hit me," Ducille's father told the outlet. "It's just crazy. It's just devastation. She was a good mother. She loved her children."
