[81Sprint]

We were there watching the launch ramp. They had the whole point taped off.

Body looks to be in good shape. Teeth and DNA should be easy to get. Someone just said to themselves, shit.

 

[Nanu/Nanu]

Could it be Hoffa?

Yep

 

[Orange Juice]

The real reason their draining Mead.

What kind of boat would you need, to roll a 55gal barrel off the back of it?

Asking for a friend?

 

[t&y]

You would think they would have gone dead center in the middle of the lake... I know the water had dropped significantly over the years. but that seems pretty close to the shoreline even for back in the day if it is exposed now.

Old school pontoon with the big front deck!

That guy who put the body in the barrel and dumped it in the lake, it most likely dead or in his 80’s

Just need a full size Caddy, let it roll in, go get dinner

I'd say that's only 20 maybe 25 years old.

 

[bilz]

Think of the firearm finds from all the tragic boating accidents. Many should be worried. Glad they have always scared me

 

[TOOLEY]

This reminds of the part in the departed where Nicholsons out of shape with dude for not burying him “in” the marsh.

Just an observation from things you’ve gathered I gather.

 

[Boat 405]

Old Vegas mob hit I'm guessing

Good. I hope this can bring someone’s family some peace. As awful as it is, it is closure.

I say body was dumped in the late 80’s.
20 years ago is only 2002. Mob was smarter on body dumps by then.

 

[TrollerDave]

I wonder if when they sweep the area how many other barrels will be found.

Better put that pole on there

Over 500,000 people go missing in the US every year. Nice to see one found and put to rest.

If it was the Mob, they would of put an oxidizer in with the body and poked holes around the barrel to let air bubbles out. That shit would of been all gone in a year. So I've been told.

My brother and his family came over this evening and he mentioned this breaking news. I told him it's like that body they dug up by his house that was dated back to the 70s.

He told me that the news said it was a homeless person that died in the late 70s. I told him I don't know of a homeless person that would be in the middle of nowhere that somehow gets buried.

This won't be the only one, being so close the Vegas. RIP to deceased.......

 

[Chili Palmer]

Maybe that’s the guy in the barrel from The Counselor.

No cap on the two inch hole on the lid, and looks to be punched with a few holes on the existing side. Floated out and shot up to sink?
Looks to be wearing a polyester or nylon type collared shirt, like the ones the dealerships had.
You know damn well they'll be sweeping the area to see if it's a loner or group.

 

[Backlash]

I didn't know the Clinton's visited Lake Mead.

It’s pretty close to the middle of where the water line “was” and where the island is.

Funny you say that. I know that area very well as I grew up out there. The mob had a hunting club out there since the 50's. I guarantee you are right.

 

[Orange Juice]

Obliviously was dumped before depth finders we’re available.

 

[just_floatin]

At least he or she was wearing a mask of sorts

 

[Nordie]

Almost looks like duct tape

The mob always say in court, we dont transport bodies, they come to the crime scene voluntarily.

There are a bunch in the weeds by Boulder Harbor. I went down Saturday saw them all and didn't think anything of it. Was 20ft up from this one walking toward the ramp.

Might cruise back down again today.

Come on man! Walt and Jesse used plastic barrels.

Friend of our family was old Vegas Mob. Part owner of the Sahara in the 50's. He always said wait until they start building this or that way. So many bodies buried.

News release that the sheriffs department found the remains of his wallet in the barrel and now have a tentative ID, Bob Burr.

 

[Nordie]

We added some flood channels at the old landfill on sunrise mountain about 10 years ago. That's back when the Italians owned the trash company before they sold out to republic services.

We always joked that they would end up digging up Hoffa. They did dig up old playboys and a few pets, but never a body.

Judging by how corroded that barrel is, whoever killed him is probably dead by now.


What kinda shitty barrel would corrode that fast? I thought those things were 50 years in salt water?

 

[Heylam]

Could be 2FORCEFULL’s body after leaking information about the lake levels.
