Lucky the bag didn’t split in the waves.
(Gross story, mind.)
Strong of stomach, but not even slightly ‘morbidly curious’ enough to look.
I’m not a detective, and none of my speculations will help bring about any resolution or justice for anyone. Suffice it to say that it’s obvious something nefarious happened to a lot of people and it’s just one more sign that the world has some atrocious folks occupying it.
They were all left hands?
Some of them are right hands
Man, sounds like this case has the authorities stumped…
Dammit! I knew I left my bag of hands somewhere!
Gonna be real hard to finger the culprit.
That’s where I left those…sheesh. Mystery solved.
Got to hand it to you I think you are right.
Probably. Also possible that hands had been cut from corpses for some legitimate reason, and a shipping accident happened.
I can imagine certain kinds of researchers needing human hands, and I know that law enforcement sometimes cut hands off of corpses (see Anna Mae Aquash and the FBI) - presumably they get disposed of at some point. In a bag, dumped in the ocean…Ok, maybe wishful thinking.
Possible, but not as probable, unfortunately.
The source article stated that they may have come from a medical facility.
I suspect Dexter.
Not these guys then?
Sounds more like the (hand) waves split in the bag.
Still (h)and all, a bag like that could come in handy.
Especially if one needs a hand disposing of, um, hands!
Hands down it was a medical accident.
(Is it hands all the way down then?)
Where’s that face-palm-hand gif when you need it?
