Another Reason I Avoid Swimming in Rivers...

I was scanning the news this morning and came across yet another sick and twisted tale.

Cops: Man Shot Mom, Brother and Cut Them Up
N.Y. Police Say Chopped Up Bodies Dumped in Harlem River
Associated Press

"A 24-year-old man told investigators he shot and killed his mother and brother, then chopped up their bodies and dumped them into the Harlem River..."

"...they found a trail of blood in the apartment and Platt outside, who admitted to killing his mother, 45-year-old Marlene Platt, and brother, Nashan Platt..."

This is precisely why I avoid swimming in rivers. And lakes too. People dump bodies in lakes too! Haven't people figured out by now that bodies and body parts inevitably float to the surface or wash ashore? Yuck! Put them somewhere else! Sane people like to swim!
