The worst thing about summer is having to mow grass. Not because of the labor or heat, it’s from having to worry about grinding over the local homeless population. We all been there right?

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. What makes the grass grow?

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.

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. Most intelligent California public worker.

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.

“We have to go see the place because we wanted some kind of closure, and to be right there, looking at the ground, and then all of a sudden, seeing chunks of her, is horrible.”

“Even when they go and pick up a dog from the street they take more time.”

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. Maybe he should have let her live with him instead of at the local park. just saying..

The woman’s family believes the careless handling of her remains might be because she was one of the city’s thousands of homeless residents. Maybe. but possibly it just be that its hard to find some one to comb through grass to pick out bits of human burger. I imagine few people would be willing to do that no matter how well paid.

Chavez, who has a 9-year-old daughter, had been transient (addicted to drugs) 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.

The 12-acre park is frequented by unhoused people and was once an authorized camping site for the area’s homeless before the ownership change.

Other homeless people said they saw Chavez wash her hair in the park’s creek before going to sleep on a hill near the playground and baseball field.

Twenty minutes later, the mower came through.

Chavez’s family is now calling for justice in their loved one’s death and for stronger city ordinances that protect homeless people. New laws! That will fix it!

“She didn’t deserve that for that reason, for being homeless,” said her older brother Randy Chavez, 33, of Arizona. “My sister was loved. The only thing she wanted was to be free.” I love these idiot’s implication that she was made into burger on purpose because she was homeless.

“We want ordinances to change so it doesn’t happen again. Regardless if they are homeless(un-housed is the new nomenclature you bigot!) they are still people and should be treated the same as any other people.”
