Chained? Who has chains in real life?
How the discovery of a woman chained ‘like a dog’ led to a break in a notorious cold case
Farmers, mechanics, truckers and many others that do men’s work - male or female.
Yolo County, where she was found, has no snow. Mountain gate, just up the hill from Redding is where you often have to chain up on I5 to go over Mount Shasta.
It was logging country, back in the days when cutting down trees was not considered a criminal offence in CA. It's also deer country. People hunt there and need chains to get the 4WDs up old logging trails and out of mud holes.
I probably have a hundred pounds of tow chains, snatch chains, tire chains, and oddball length chains in my personal work truck along with the lifts, hoist, winch, and come-a-longs to pull, lift and drag heavy things I need to load or move.
We don't live like people in the cities do. It is often a long ways and a long cold walk to find help. Around here people must be able to take care of themselves. Just getting to our home calls for passing through miles of no cell service and very little traffic on a narrow county road.
The writing is confusing, at best-”heavily battered”-as opposed to lightly battered? It sounds as if the author is talking about preparing meat or vegetables for frying...
I keep a large chain in the back of my 4x4-as well as a comealong and an extra trailer hitch-sometimes you have to pull heavy stuff around on job sites, and I don’t allow anyone to risk injury-so things to provide a mechanical advantage are needed...

Or Laz ... I can’t say anymore ... :/
I keep 4 in my truck along with a 3-ton chain hoist.
Just in case.
