He admits chopping him up, but not to doing him in.

It does seem excessive at first but in fairness door to door salesmen are pretty irritating folk so I think that should be taken into account.

I agree, I've dismembered several myself. Luckily I didn't murder them though, otherwise I'd be in trouble.

Well that's the line isn't it?

A little bit of amputation here and there is just horseplay but murder is just going too far.

Presumably he's going to argue that the bint who is also on trial murdered him and he just helped dispose of the body.

I tend to become 'armless when I'm legless.

Must have been the same.

That would be my guess. Or manslaughter on grounds of diminished responsiblity or provocation (let's face it, some of these people get close to provoking you, ever tried to get rid of a double glazing salesman?)... But no malice aforethought so not murder...

The salesman had sold him a duff chopping block for the kitchen and he was merely pointing out its faults.

This link should be sent to all 'Anglian' Reps. Some of them deserve a good dismembering.

my money is on some dodgy 'uk contacts' threesome..

the salesman and the 'dismembering' bloke, turfing out the 21 year old, and it got out of hand..

That or he had a heart attack from to much of the old blue pill, and the other two panicked...

What's the problem?

Bloke finds a dead body, decides to chop it up, then leave bits in various places around the country.

Sounds perfectly plausibe to me biggrin

They should do him for littering ........
