Talk about lucky and determined to live. This lady was tasered & taped up by her bf. Then buried in a cardboard box. :eek: She used her ring to cut the tape and then cleared away the dirt. Lucky for her the worthless sod was too lazy to dig a deep grave.

That BF is quite the son of a bitch. Any respectable boyfriend would have got a decent cardboard box from Jared. ---

Dad always said, “When digging a hole, once you’ve gone what you figure is deep enough, go deeper.” Now I know why. ---

> [@garygnu](#): > > I was confused by this sentence at first. I thought she got out because the sod covering her was worthless. Nah, sod has a lot more value than the dick who did this. Amazing how he clearly intended for her to die, but didn’t have the balls to kill her himself before putting her in the ground. Talk about a half-measure… and boy did it come back to haunt him. ---

Incredible as it may seem, a woman who used to work where I do also escaped from a shallow grave! She ran with a rough bunch, obviously, but this to me was nearly unbelievable. Everyone swore it was true though. > [@](#): > > Good for her for keeping her head! Good thing he didn’t go Full Marie Antoinette on her! 😛 ---

I have some removed-cousin (my dad’s uncle’s son–too lazy to figure out the exact relation) who did the same thing, except he succeeded. He taped up his girlfriend in duct tape and threw her in the river, if I am remembering correctly. As to the second quote I posted above: there was evidence (not enough to convict) that my cousin’s _dad_ helped him do it! I think it was Dateline that actually ran a story on the case. It happened in Florida. My “cousin” is still in prison. The woman in this article is crazy-lucky! Reading through that story I was totally amazed. I hope the guy gets some serious prison time. ---
