    You need to read the post. > Wait a minute, this list goes to 17, yet the intro only mentions 14! I actually did that because a couple might overlap and a couple of them are half-a…

    I would think that getting rid of the evidence is the integral part of planning a crime. Otherwise it is sloppiness. There is a lot of ways to do such things I am sure, but you hav…
