The title excludes the fact that the location is a police training area and the groundskeeper thought it was a prop for training not some Halloween decoration in the suburbs.
So the guy is found on the grass in front of a property that according to his family, he's never been to before, wearing only his underwear, and with potential defensive wounds on his arms. And this is just a few hours after he had a friend pick him up. And the police didn't treat it as a homicide. Didn't even cordon off the scene to prevent contamination. And the house this guy was found in front of is routinely used for police training.
Am I just being paranoid in assuming he was murdered by one or more cops? I mean... why else would they not investigate? Other than malicious incompetence, of course.
I mean, it could also well be just malicious incompetence covering, well...the regular kind of incompetence. If it turns out multiple cops were in and out of there during that time and all but tripped over a dead guy, that's not exactly a great look either.
It's plausible someone dumped him there thinking it was just an abandoned house and not realizing it was as active a location as it was. Or that the poor guy was ODing or something and his 'friend' tried to drop him back at his grandma's, then panicked and dumped him at the first secluded spot he saw when he realized he was dead. By the sounds of it, the wounds on his arms are the only visible wounds on the body (and it was just the random construction worker who found the guy that called them 'defensive wounds').
and it was just the random construction worker who found the guy that called them ‘defensive wounds’
Yes, but that just goes to demonstrate my point: the police did jack shit to investigate. Why the hell is the family getting more information from some guy that found their brother / son than from the police?
Sounds at least plausible to me
So if he thought it was not a prop he would have mowed through it???
Worked for Peter Jackson
It’s October, but does this guy not have a nose?
Read the article. Guy was last seen alive later in the day on Oct 8, and the groundskeeper mowed on Oct 9 - less than 24 hours had passed, possibly less than 12. The house was abandoned, had no squatters, and was used by multiple police departments for different training purposes.
The body was only there for several hours to a day when he found it. Takes longer than that to start stinking.
He's high on grass clippings.
I misread mows as meows

No smell?
Fresh bodies don't smell strongly. They do develop a characteristic odor fairly quickly, but you can't really smell it unless you're close, and I've been around enough of them that I recognize the smell for what it is.
Two days though? And it was outside and no wild animals started eating it, even buzzards?
It wasn’t two days. He was last seen alive the evening of the 8th and the groundskeeper found him the morning of the 9th. It was only a few hours at most.
Yes, thanks. I don’t know why I thought the 10th, but I just doublechecked. My fault!
No worries, that’s when the construction worker found him and reported it. So you weren’t wrong, just the wrong person lol.
You’re so generous. I was wrong, to my way of thinking. I thank you for your kindness, nonetheless.
Was it two days? I thought the person died on the 7th and was found on the 8th. Technically, that's possible with a gap of one second.
love how the story is about landscaping and not a murder. the country is funny

It’s all about novelty.
Murder is local news.
Mistaken cadaver for dummy goes viral.
