Yes, of course anyone would prioritize a shitty low paying job over furthering their education and career prospects.

How did they find a stretch without any landing gear swallowing potholes?

What's your moral barometer?

Actually he was in better shape, this photo was a few days later and since so many people were accessing the fridge to view his body it was warm and he began to decompose.

At the point of starvation they'd need a lot of bananas to make up for the deficit.

An IV of Potassium and possibly Lactated Ringers is really all that's needed. Once the Potassium levels are restored a person can safely digest food and begun replenishing fat stores.

Heart failure. Digestion requires certain minerals, particularly Potassium, which is also needed for heart function.

cdc194

IV administered Potassium is the only treatment. At that point people no longer posses the means of both digestion and continued heart function.

cdc194

Unfortunately you're right, his lower extremity swelling is indictive of impending heart failure. Since IV administration of Potassium and other minerals hadn't been invented yet he's already in the process of dying.

He probably already had. Cartels have been doing this stuff for 40 years, recording it too, the only difference is now they're advertising. If you're curious Google what they did to DEA special agent Enrique Camarena in the 80s.

I took this flight, JFK to Lahore and then Islamabad. It was a goddamn nightmare.

If it makes it any better when it first made it to the narco website the story was that the young kid was reportedly a sicario for another cartel and that's why he got it the worse, his dad was in the wrong place at the wrong time. It got reposted with a made up story a few days ago.

I counted 14, a glock 17 mag dump.

Perforated thoracic cavity. The lungs work via a vacuum created by your diaphragm, if you have bullet wounds then the diaphragm pulls air in through those and the lungs don't expand.

There are approximately 2 dozen nuclear warheads, some inside of crushed submarines, thousands of feet under water.

I'd pay if the show was 45 minutes of someone beating him with a bar of soap in a gym sock.

Its why Native Americans scalped their enemies, they believed it denied them an afterlife and dooms their souls to walk the earth for eternity. To some extent that's the same idea behind beheading, even post-mortem, in some cultures.

I just watched a YouTube video about the capture of Nuremberg and it showed engineers blowing up the marble swastika monument on the Zepplenfeld. Having been in the Army myself I though "50lbs of comp B would be enough to destroy it, I'd double it" and true to Army thinking they used 200lbs to blow it to hell lol.

The explosion

Coroner is a county position so maybe in some Sheriff headed municipalities. Hospitals have pathologists and cities have forensic pathologists and they only determine cause of death, death is declared a few steps before they get involved. In most cases of violent death a homicide investigation will occur so the body needs to stay put, an EMT putting 2 electrode pads in their chest just to make sure is the preferred method as it disturbs the scene the least.

cdc194

It differs from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, some require a doctor's opinion, some allow police officers to make the call, most jurisdictions just required an EKG printout showing no pulse to declare someone dead.

That's what was so appealing with the border patrol location assignments, some of those Arizona duty stations were a 2 hour helicopter ride to the nearest hospital. No thank you.

Yup, technically it's against the UCMJ but "when in Rome..."
