The most morbid way i heard about was in the news, when i lived in Brasil. Store owners used to pay police officers to get rid of the homeless disturbing their business in Rio de Janeiro.

Carried out at night, organized & stealthy, most victims were kids.

I don't remember if someone really went to jail for this. That was in the 80s, like 20 years ago.

Noooo! All of the 90s were 10 years ago and always will be, so it follows that the 80s were 20 years ago!
