Bear eats corpse of convicted murderer in Canada
 A bear ate the corpse of a convicted killer in a wooded area of Canada, according to authorities.The mauled body of Rory Nelson Wagner, 53, was found in a rural area in southern British Columbia on Wednesday evening, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said. Police believe Wagner was already dead in a 1986 Volkswagen Jetta when the black bear broke into the vehicle, ate some parts of him and dragged the rest of the body away. "The driver's window of the vehicle was down and investigators noted numerous muddy animal prints and scratches on the car," police said. Doesn't mean much. Perhaps he had kids. Officials "discovered the body in the surrounding bush, about 120 meters from the vehicle," police said. It was a grizzly scene. Drug paraphernalia and a bottle of liquor was found in the car. Never do bath salts with a bear, I guess. A coroner is conducting an autopsy and toxicology tests. Conducting an autopsy on what? A pile of bear poop? Wagner and two other people were charged with the 1993 killing of a man they thought had sexually assaulted a relative, CNN affiliate CTV reported. The man they killed was found not guilty of sexual assault charges, according to the affiliate. Looks like the charges didn't bear out. Wagner was convicted for the murder, but he had been on parole. Conservation officials say the bear was caught, but may be killed to ensure public safety. But the bear killed a killer. Again, our authorities make no sense. Posted by: gorb 2012-06-02 |
