Hopewell Police Say Man Stashed Body Under A Bed For Weeks

A local panhandler in Hopewell is accused of hiding a dead body for at least three weeks under his bed – the same bed where his girlfriend died from a heroin overdose in August. 36-year-old Donald Teaford was arrested last week on charges of abuse of a corpse. The dead man is 33-year-old Justin Cogan, according to the coroner in Beaver County. The cause of death has not been determined. Teaford is being held in the Beaver County Jail pending a hearing next month.
