“Top 10 Unique Things I’ve Done” (Originally Posted 3/21/2005)
I’ve noticed a lot of sites with a list of unique things the author has done. In the interest of fitting in, here’s my compilation. As a death investigator, I supppose there are many things I’ve done that most people haven’t, so I’ll try to include things most people haven’t thought of…
1. Taken a deceased child from the arms of a grieving mother or father.
2. Done the above dozens of times.
3. Amassed more photos of naked people on my work computer than most people have on their home computer.
4. Driven a car with a dead body across the hood.
5. Collected and assembled the shattered remains of a 3-year-old’s head in order to figure out where it had been shot.
6. Climbed a tree to cut down a body.
7. Been stopped for speeding and given an apology instead of a ticket.
8. Examined a dead dog for signs of smoke inhalation.
9. Crawled about 50’ into a sewer pipe to drag out a body.
10. Been stopped by the state police with thousands of dollars worth of illicit drugs in the front seat and released (unrelated to #4).
I may add to this list in the future as I recall any more “out of the ordinary” stuff.

You’re back! I was so happy to see something new pop up on your RSS feed that now I have to explain the squeal of delight to baffled onlookers.
I’m also going to guess that #5 was the toughest in all aspects.
Here’s hoping to hear more from you!

I only found your site a few weeks ago and have read all the posts. This is really interesting stuff. I’m a writer (among other things) and real details about death are not the easiest to come by. I was sad when I came to the end of the posts, and wished for more. I really hope this means you’re going to start posting again!
