The problem with water disposal, is that you have to weigh it down securely. You don’t want those catfish to nibble off an arm, only to have it come floating up. I think I may have put too much thought into this. ---

There’s also the need to transport the person from the kill site to the dock or marina. Plenty of crime dramas have started with someone being caught during a routine traffic stop. ---

> [@Just\_Asking\_Questions](#): > > Chicken wire. I thought everyone knew that. > [@Mollie\_Magill](#): > > I think I may have put too much thought into this. Back in the day, my student job at college had me doing a bunch of late night kjeldahl digestion tests. It’s a test of the organic nitrogen in a sample and once you’ve set up the line of flasks with the samples boiling in the sulfuric acid, there’s not a lot to do until the sample is fully rendered. So I would often find myself considering how fiddly it would be to use the process to dispose of a body. The samples had to be 3/4 of an inch or smaller to fit into the flasks used for the big boiler array. But the lab did have a freezer, and because it was a graduate student lab, there were things in the back that were assumed to have been put there by people who had left years ago. No one touched that stuff. ---

I thought this might have been posted already…A couple hours after the Club Q shooter attacked the club, his mom was arrested for repeatedly yelling in her neighbourhood. And she’s had previous warrants for her arrest in California. He probably didn’t have the most sound upbringing - she kinda looks the part. > **[Mother of Colorado Springs mass shooter arrested hours after attack](https://ca.news.yahoo.com/mother-club-q-mass-shooter-162955875.html)** > > Ms Voepel was warned ‘multiple times’ to stop causing a disturbance, police claim ---

> [@Atamasama](#): > > Did any of it scream to be let out? Not that I ever heard. But then it was a walk-in freezer with really thick walls and a thick door. And it was a room over. What I’m saying is I can’t swear it didn’t. It was an environmental engineering lab, if that helps. A lot of the samples were sewage or landfill related. ---

If Lake Meade is any guide, this part isn’t all that difficult. Then again, Lake Meade also shows that water behind a dam can’t be counted upon to remain sufficiently deep for purposes of long-term cadaver storage and concealment. ---

I can’t believe how many bodies they found so far.
