How would you commit the perfect murder?

[tastybasslines]

I realize this is a very morbid topic (pun intended) and might make me appear to be a psychopath, but alot of interesting discussion can be had. I have a degree in Criminology, and crime, and solving crime has long been a hobby of mine. Love crime shows.

I have had some discussion with people in the past about how to commit crimes and have had alot of fun in exposing the holes in their theory - and there are almost limitless theories. It can actually be fun to try to figure out strategies and plans. Like how to escape and not get caught if you are being chased by the police.

I have many ideas about how to commit murder and ways to get away with it, but want to hear your ideas. Anyone can chime in with why or why not something might work, evidence left behind and what not.

This is more about logic and puzzle theory than about committing murder. No one here is foaming at the mouth to kill someone!

Let's hear some ideas.

NO witnesses. Or be prepared to kill the witnesses. Hopefully the target is a careless person with a few bad habits. Use your imagination.

Here's my thought.

Do it on 1st April in Switzerland. It's the national day, and there are fireworks on all night, which would perfectly disguise a gunshot. File down the rifling on the gun, so the bullets cannot be traced back to you. Wear lycra, head to toe to avoid dropping fibres. Gloves, of course, are a must. Take care to clean up afterwards (maybe place the victim so the mess will be colelcted on a plastic sheet, or easily disposable surface). With the body, cut it into about half a dozen pieces, and place each piece in a bin bag with some stones. Take the bags to a remote-ish lake called the Klöntalersee (about 45mins from ym house, nice and convinient) and from a secluded spot, dump the bags in the lake. As they will be weighed down with stones, they'll sink and should never be found.

Either that or turn up at the Bahnhofstrasse on a Saturday afternoon with an MG42 and let loose...

Nice. let me analyze this. All of my perfect murders happen without a gun.

Stab 'em with an icicle.

Who says I haven't

[knumbskull]

1) become a billionaire.
2) do it any way you feel like, so long as you're reasonably discreet and you don't upset the help.

[Jimbob Jones]

Wait, this way is better.

1) Wait for a chilly day
2) Stab 'em with an icicle
3) ???
4) Profit!
