On February 19th, 2013, the naked corpse of a young woman was found floating in the water tank atop downtown L.A.’s Cecil Hotel.

The hotel’s maintenance workers had gone to check on the rooftop tank after guests complained that their water tasted funny. It was then that they found the severely waterlogged and decomposing body of 21-year-old Elisa Lam.
