Man's body found beneath kitchen floor at his house

I bet the guy killed himself and then boarded himself up so nobody would find him.

I believe this is murder since a person cannot strangle him(her) self to death since you'll pass out before it kills you. At least that's what I heard decades ago.

If this is the same case as I saw on the news last night, he was actually found in the under-floor storage bin in the kitchen rather than under the floorboards. Normally you'd think someone in the family did it- I wonder who else lives in the house?

Apsara, the same thing occurred to me. The bins under the kitchen floor are usually opened with one of those twist-handles and some are large enough to even be equipped with a small ladder that leads down into the bowels of the house. It's like a tiny basement. Anyway, there's no need to disturb the floorboards.

I don't get it, If my dad was missing for a day I would be calling the police. Did she cook at all, I mean what did they store in those bins wherein she did not need to look in the storage bins for 2 days or until she smelled something. This is fishy, I hope the murderer confesses to this.

My understanding of the storage unit in the kitchen floor of houses. A builder informed me when we first bought our house that the unit was an emergency food storage box in the event of an earthquake . The first thing families who survived,rummaged through the wreckage for their food and water supply.

It's easy enough to lift the bin out and drop a body down and replace the bin and the hatch cover . Case solved , I'm with Chris McMillan .

Utrack- I have under-kitchen storage that I have not opened in several years. I make do with over-kitchern storage. In- kitchen.

gaijinifo- I doubt he decided to get down into the storage, close it, and strangle himself there! And did he beat himself about the head too?

Yeah, family/relative looks likely. Someone who knew th house anyway.
