Male Lived In House With His Dead Mother In Bensalem
by Alex Lloyd Gross
Derrick Bouffard is in serious trouble, after police went to his mothers residence on October 25. 2025 on Hunters Court South, in Bensalem. When they went into the house, they found the decomposed body of Cynthia Bouffard lying on a mattress on the first floor family room, police wrote in court papers.
Her body was decomposing and there were insects and bugs throughout the house, police wrote in court documents. The original reason for police arriving was to stand by as the township Public Works Department cut the grass. Apparently, there had been issues when they were there before, as the lawn was out of control.
Police knocked several times but there was no answer at the front door. As they were going to the rear of the property, Derrick emerged from the front and told police that he was “just about to call you guys, my mom stopped breathing this morning”.
When officers entered the property, it was in complete disarray, they wrote in court papers. The refrigerator held nothing except condiments and a door dash bag. The freezer had rotting food that was covered in insects, police said in court documents.
Police contacted the coroner who stated that the body had been dead for close to two weeks. When police searched Derrick’s phone, they found searches for “Bensalem Probate Court” and “When to notify bank of deceased family member”.
