Getting away with murder

What would be the best way to do it without getting caught? I heard a good way would be to stab someone to death with an icicle. Once it melts, there's no murder weapon!

This is hypothetical people. Please don't try this at home.

I dunno. The folks that "disappeared" Jimmy Hoffa seem to have found a pretty good way.

Stab someone with an icicle the cops still have the dead body. They may not have the actual murder weapon but they still know one was committed and the weapon isn't the only lead they'd chase down.

Have the person disappear and never be found and they have a much lower chance of knowing if any crime has even been committed.

clobber someone with a frozen leg of lamb then call 911 to report an accident. When the police arrive along with the EMT folks, have the leg of lamb cooked and serve it to all. ( or something like that) Smile

Letty- Roald Dahl wrote about that many years ago. It was one of my favorite stories. Barbara Bel Geddes played the "grieving widow"!

Put the body in a hospital emergency room. Make sure it has no medical insurance ID. It will stay there indefinitely with no one paying it any mind.

I just read today, after seeing the Passion, a guy felt his only chance at redemtion was to confess to killing a young woman. He had made her death look like suicide, as if she had hung herself. Very well planned out.

I've always thought that Murder by Old Fashioned Potato Salad (with a home made, egg-based dressing) might pass as a Tragic Accident.

Prepare the potato salad the night before and mix well with from-scratch mayonnaise--the kind with raw, unpasturized eggs. Store covered on the kitchen counter in a warm room and serve at room temperature.

I didn't know the gun was loaded....

I have a wonderful idea of getting away with murder.

You train an animal, like a pig, to do it-- and then eat it after the act has happened! Or have them trampled by elephants: no animal can be detained, can they?

On a more serious note... there was this guy, a few days ago, who killed three girls, three Volleyball players-- and for their three murders, he had to pay £3,000, and apart from that got off scot free!! THREE deaths, and just a tap on the wrist, which he can pay off week by week.

That is appalling, drom!

I am tempted to ask about his method for the sake of this thread, but I don't think any of us even wants to pay a fine!

For the sake of the thread (and for the fact that, should anything happen-- like contempt of court-- we can always run away to Armenia: )

It was a brutal murder; he ran them down with a truck.

I guess that I could post this somewhere else, if it's an intrusion to the initial question... ok, I will: I'll put it under 'Truck murderer kills three, but gets away.' In this forum.

Sorry, DetR, it ain'ta gonna work . . . this elephant was executed for murder in Tennessee in 1916 . . .

Here's the story, clickity-click . . .

You might get away with it, but don't assume your accomplice will.

Wow! The saddes thing is that people are now making money out of hanging an elephant.

Well, there go my plans for the summer. Thanks for telling me beforehand, though, Setanta! Very Happy

As for the truck murder, here's my summing up of it.

The Volleyball Deaths (sounds like an evil mix of ominous and Sweet Valley High)

There are ways. I can think of dozens involving cars & steering parts.
