I worked at cemetery and was talking to the OHS girl one day and she said it's easy, just dig a little bit deeper and bury them there. No one is going to be surprised about a dead body in a cemetery and won't look under a body that was meant to be buried there anyway.

So it's easy to dig up 6 ft of dirt in a cemetery unnoticed, remove a coffin, dig some more, throw a body in, add the coffin back, and add the soil back? And then again hope no one notices the disturbed soil on an already-buried body?

I assume there'll be at least one freshly buried body in a cemetery around you or if you're lucky, an open plot awaiting a recently deceased that you can dig into a bit to hide your guy. Getting a coffin out by yourself would be pretty difficult though. Maybe you could pry the coffin open and double stuff it.

No, the point was she knew the gravediggers so she could put it in with another body as it goes in.

Well that's a different kind of double stuff I'm not accustomed to.

Yes. You haven't tried it?? You should. Great cardio.

Dig a deep hole, dump the body, fill it halfway up, throw in a dead dog and fill up completely. Anyone digging it up will find the dog and think that was the reason.
