I admit, I have tried to figure out hypothetically how someone could get away with murder, and I thought going to another state, or even going to Mexico or Canada and then killing a random person would be part of it, but even then, you would have to do it from a distance because you might leave DNA on the body (they might fight back for example, get a bit of your skin under their nails or something). That would probably involve shooting a gun. Which is loud.
Maybe if you found a way to poison someone without anyone seeing the both of you together…

What the fuck are you talking about, Jesse?
What, you’ve never thought about this as a hypothetical? Maybe it’s because I love mystery novels and Columbo is one of my all-time favorite shows…
Unsolved murder rate dropped to 50% in 2020, and that was a historic low: https://www.npr.org/2023/04/29/1172775448/people-murder-unsolved-killings-record-high
So the real answer might be to just murder someone and you have a coin flip chance of ever being caught.
Yes, RCMP and PFM, this comment right here.
