Middle Aged Male Victim Kissing Nicole, whilst starting to feel very woozy, "Why are pulling away and getting out those pliers?"

Nicole, "Where you're going, it's best you don't have any teeth."

You asked a woman with pliers in her purse for a date, TWICE?  I mean, I understand once.  But eventually you can't always think with your dick.

sir, that's not what this thread is for

[YGIFS 19,449]

Mister Poster, are you a cop?  Because if I ask you, you are legally required to self-identify.  Asking for a friend, of course.  

 

This town is simply amazing. Six years spending 6-figures to figure out if a mini-train can fit under the Barton Springs Road tunnel (who knew tape measures cost that much?), 8-figures buying hotels for the homeless that nobody stays in and offer no mental health services, and millions spent on engineering and legal advice to tell us the way after the election and way after the the breaking-dirt ceremony that the airport light rail will leave you somewhere between 183 & Riverside where you can hoof it the rest of the way to the terminal.  But we can't rub together $7,500 bucks to put a few cameras along Town Lake between IH-35 and South 1st Street bridges?  

It makes my teeth itch when uninformed "students of history" whine about why we spend money overseas when we have so many problems here at home.  When in fact, our Foreign Aid has hovered around 1% of our discretionary spending budget for decades.  But we can't spend a few bucks on what is obviously a dumping area for dead bodies for the last few years?  If you include the bodies they haven't found yet, we're close to two dozen over the last few years in an area not much bigger than our football stadium.  We need to start a True Crime Surly Podcast soon and monetize this like "Only Murders in the Building" before we miss our window.  Lotta hooks and blow to be purchased next season of the SEC.  And yes, in this timeline, "SEC" stands for Sexually Exhausted Crimes.

I’m pretty curious about this but we’re too busy discussing how to dispose of a body without getting caught.

[DaggerHorns 3,082]

Corpus Christi authorities, however, said they haven't linked Harris to the body that was found in the well. They said the body had no obvious signs of foul play and they're trying to figure out how it got there, since, according to our sister station KIII, the wastewater station was locked when an employee made the discovery earlier this week. They said that means someone would have had to have a key to get into where the wet well is located.

According to KIII, the medical examiner's office wasn't able to identify the remains due to the advanced state of decomposition they were in. They also couldn't determine a manner of death. The remains were sent to another lab for DNA testing.

That sounds pretty lame. There are dental records and DNA and bones alone can pretty much determine age and sex. And it sounds like toxicology was lacking so no obvious signs of foul play was based on mainly no broken bones. 

[YGIFS 19,449]

24-month backlog on rape kits at DPS.  24-month backlog on DNA analysis on Rainey Street deaths by APD.  24-month backlog on Internal Affairs cases at Travis County Sheriff's office.

But Black guy inquiring as to what he's being detains all mouthy 'n shit?  Shot dead in 24 seconds.

It's like Elvis said in "True Romance"--------'Man, getting away with it is the easy part.  It's the killing that's hard.' 

One of the truest lines Quentin ever wrote.  An EMT or Coroner or Hospice to get rid of the body, it's comically easy.  Carrying the burden of getting a person to end their life, and worrying about an overly-zealous relative or friend who won't accept what happened, that's the hard part.

Plus the fact that the body could have been cut into pieces and not gone through the system as a whole.   Not that I would know.  

[YGIFS 19,449]

Yeah, but the problem with chopping up a body into 6-8 chunks and disposing of it one waterway is yeah, it's easier to dump.  But it also extrapolates the number of opportunities for some boater or cop or swimmer to find one the pieces.  In this CSI day and age, you get rid of the body on the whole.  And you get law enforcement/coroner's office to do it for you.  This ain't rocket surgery.  People buy plane tickets with a pre-paid debit card at a public library computer with a Covid mask, hat, and sunglasses, having walked there...every single day.  Somebody even walks to the airline kiosk for a hefty sum and scans in their passport or GE card that is faked.  But walks back out because they forgot something in their car.  And the other party involved winds up dead, but appears to have gone abroad.  Since the advent of CCTV, internet footprints, digital payments, and social media posts---it's actually easier to disappear people than it used to be in the analog age because nobody looks for the old-school clues.  Though rare, a pay phone, a pre-paid debit card, and a public computer with hundreds of users per day---you'd be shocked what you can accomplish with nobody the wiser.

I would imagine if the body were chopped up in several pieces, that would be considered “signs of foul play.”

APD Forensics, "We can tell by the blood spatter that the victim's head was severed first, then the other parts afterwards."  

APD Detectives, "Well this doesn't fit any pattern of foul play or serial killing.  Clearly, this man cut off his own head and then took his time chopping up the rest of his own body.  Obviously suicide, case closed."

We used to give our pigs  post-processed deer carcasses and the only things they couldn't eat were the brain pans as they couldn't get their mouths open enough to crush them.

Moral of the story would be to smack your corpse's skull with a hammer before feeding the pigs.

[YGIFS 19,449]

Yeah, but the police or investigators find that skull, which will not decompose for a long while, even the worst APD detective can tell it's been crushed by blunt force.  Plus pigs still shit out all kinda remnants that are pretty damn easy to identify as human body parts/DNA.  By the time you raise a pig farm and this aeration tank logistics and remove all these bones 'n shit.  Just spend 1/10th the effort learning what a person ingests as far as food/drink/medicine.  And have them OD on something.  Coroner takes care of the body for you.  Only downside, is sometimes there's collateral damage.

Pigs eat their own shit though. It's recursive.

Quote

According to court documents, the same day Haden went missing, police received a 911 call from one of Haden's neighbors claiming there was a man in the hallway screaming "oh my God."

Police responded to the call but did not find the person involved in the disturbance.

Court documents also show police performed a welfare check on Haden's apartment on Nov. 4 after a family member called because they were concerned. The officer found no one in the unit but noted what they believed to be a "wine stain" next to the bed before leaving.

On Nov. 9, a private investigator, hired by Haden's family, entered Haden's apartment. After pulling back the bedsheets, he discovered what appeared to be blood.

 

[Hmbre97 6,305]

 

Was this apartment out in Lakeway?

Or maybe the cop lives out in Steiner so is accustomed to wine stains around the house
