Fresh bodies don't smell strongly. They do develop a characteristic odor fairly quickly, but you can't really smell it unless you're close, and I've been around enough of them that I recognize the smell for what it is.
Two days though? And it was outside and no wild animals started eating it, even buzzards?
It wasn’t two days. He was last seen alive the evening of the 8th and the groundskeeper found him the morning of the 9th. It was only a few hours at most.
Yes, thanks. I don’t know why I thought the 10th, but I just doublechecked. My fault!
No worries, that’s when the construction worker found him and reported it. So you weren’t wrong, just the wrong person lol.
You’re so generous. I was wrong, to my way of thinking. I thank you for your kindness, nonetheless.
Was it two days? I thought the person died on the 7th and was found on the 8th. Technically, that's possible with a gap of one second.
