Cop says because it means a lot less paperwork  Don't know if it was bullshit or not but my buddy swears it is a true story. |
Bullshit! I have heard various versions of this story.
Even in Texas there will be an investigation when someone gets shot and killed. This will involve investigators from agencies such as or similar to the local police department, the prosecutors office, a major crimes unit, coroners office, etc. Someone will realize very quickly that the body has been moved.
With any shooting there is a lot of paperwork. You are doing paperwork for years. There is the criminal investigation. The civil investigation, because you will get sued. Grand jury testimony. Interviews with attorneys.
