Xonax Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Possible working accident?? Cheaper for the employer to dispose the body, than to pay compensation to the family! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice reporting there... I would think that it's obviously a murder if someone was stuffed inside a duvet cover. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post pistachios Posted July 5, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 5, 2013 Nice switch from "no visible wound" to "skull was broken and face bloodied". Seems like it was a bit too hard rule this death as suicide by a lazy policeman... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye21 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 The body was wrapped in a duvet and the suspect murder? I can't ever recall hearing about someone committing suicide by way of a duvet? Must have put their best investigators on this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
