Wow.......just wow

If one is an Alabama minister, being found dead wearing two rubber wet suits, rubberized underwear, and a head mask is NOT how one wants to be remembered.

Never mind what they found in his pants.

What an embarassing way to go.

I love that "please refrain from speculation" line. Yeah, don't want the parishioners speculating about what else other members of the clergy might be up to in their spare time. They might, after all, get it right. :)

Oh.My.God.

I laughed so hard tea came out of my nose.

I *want* to know wht they found in his pants.. It may be a sick think to even consider, but I'm sorry, he was the idiot, and I'm enjoying laughing about it.

Use the tab at the side to read the second page of the report. It's in the first paragraph, Evidence of Injury.

The listing of "personal effects" at the end is what made tea come out of my nose....

Just think of the family having to pick up his personal effects.......

And one thought: it sounds like there had to be someone else involved. The way he was clothed and tied, it wouldn't be possible for him to complete the process on his own. His death was almost certainly an accident, not foul play, but were I the police I'd be looking for whoever helped him finish the tying-up.

Judging from my own memories of wearing a single wet suit, he probably died of heat prostration.
