Missing San Francisco Programmer Found Dead in Crawl Space

A missing San Francisco computer programmer was found dead in a crawl space of his home last week, police said.

Cops responded to Christopher Woitel’s apartment in the Mission District on Friday and found his remains in a three-foot-tall crawl space above his bathroom that was “hidden from plain view,” according to the San Francisco Police Department.

Fire officials also arrived at the scene and had to cut a hole in the ceiling so they could retrieve Woitel’s body. Police say the 50-year-old likely got into the crawl space from the roof of the building.

Obviously, he fell from the roof into the crawlspace and was killed by the impact. Next!

> Woitel was extremely generous with the homeless by bringing them meals and even allowed them in his home to shower.

Ok.

> found his remains in a three-foot-tall crawl space above his bathroom

Oh. Well, that’s interesting. Just saying.

Well, he does look like the kind of person who would get stuck in a crawl space.

...above his bathroom that was “hidden from plain view,”"

I'm glad his bathroom was hidden from plain view.

What type of house did he live in that has a three foot crawl space? isn't that considered an "attic".

Did he think that space was the mountains?

What roof has an opening through which one can enter? Skylight?

This story is leaky.

Could have been running network cable through his attic. You’d think a detail like that would make it into the article though. Strange case.

Another dog crap article
crawl space is the space that goes under the structure, like a basement, but generally not high enough to walk around, hence the name crawl space

The space above the living space between the roof is called an attic.

What did he die of? Electrocution? Starvation? Natural causes/heart attack?

Also why was he up there? Trying to sneak a peek at his homeless friends in the shower down below?

The article is written by a moron

“Weird. Everything about this man.”

Think of a whole city full of them like that. No wonder there is a Pelosi.

Well - it was homeless folks using the bathroom and shower. I’m guessing most of them wouldn’t have noticed an/another odd smell.

Maybe he was a coal miner before he was a coder.

It was a hardware problem.

Not his responsibility.
