It’s October, but does this guy not have a nose?

Read the article. Guy was last seen alive later in the day on Oct 8, and the groundskeeper mowed on Oct 9 - less than 24 hours had passed, possibly less than 12. The house was abandoned, had no squatters, and was used by multiple police departments for different training purposes.

The body was only there for several hours to a day when he found it. Takes longer than that to start stinking.

He's high on grass clippings.
