An upstate New York woman has been accused of hiding the corpse of her roommate who overdosed in February and continuing to host parties with guests, authorities said. The two women directed police to Barter’s bedroom, where officers discovered her body on the bed. Investigators believe Barter died of a suspected drug overdose during the week of Feb. 6 and that Hillburn moved her body with the help of Eglin. Police said Barter’s body was hidden so that guests wouldn’t discover it during the several parties and gatherings Hillburn and Eglin hosted the following week. Eglin, who was already in state prison on an unrelated charge, is expected to face a similar charge.
