there's something else to the story if they couldn't identify the body to begin with. 1 week in lake water isn't gonna rot your penis off...right?

its never too late to tell if its male or female. Unless of course Lake Raleigh water incinerates bone.

well, you don't just snatch a body out of the water and go to ripping open the rotting carcass to count ribs

i think the dude you quoted was saying that it sounded like it wasn't long enough to reach that level of decomposition

[Edited on May 20, 2010 at 9:15 PM. Reason : just going off the ?!?!?!]

[Edited on May 20, 2010 at 9:16 PM. Reason : yes, there is a ton of study done on it. cadaver farms.]

my bad.


i failed this time at reading comprehension

5/20/2010 9:17:14 PM

but yeah, they have these human decomposition research places where they get cadavers that were donated to science and they put them in various conditions and document the decomposition rates. i'm sure they've done them in a pond before.

i figured as much.

i couldn't find anything conclusive when i searched

"Raleigh, N.C. — A badly decomposed body found floating in a lake on the North Carolina State University campus on Wednesday has been identified as a missing Raleigh man, university police said Thursday. Hugh Debrory Allen, 48, was reported missing to Raleigh police last week after authorities said he wandered away from an apartment on Gorman Street, authorities said. A Silver Alert for him was issued on Tuesday. A couple walking with their children found Allen's body floating in the southwest corner of Lake Raleigh, off Centennial Boulevard, Wednesday afternoon. The 75-acre lake is located on N.C. State's Centennial Campus. There are no indications of foul play in Allen's death, N.C. State Police Capt. Jack Moorman said. Lake Raleigh was reopened on Thursday."
