Extraordinary X-ray reveals how murderer executed victim by firing 30 nails into his head
Daily Mail ^ | 4/24/09 | Richard Shears

This extraordinary X-ray shows how 27-year-old Anthony Liu was brutally murdered with a nail gun.

Up to 30 nails were fired into his head, the three-inch spikes penetrating vital areas of the brain.

Police in Sydney have released the graphic photo in the hope that it will lead to the identity of Mr Liu's killer.

Someone, they believe, has information about the murderer who will have had a grudge against the dead man - and be in possession of a nail gun.

Apparently they wanted him to be identifiable. They don’t appear to have touched the face aside from a couple through the jaw.

I’m guessing a Paslode strip-nailer firing D-heads.

But you couldn’t use such a bulky nailer on someone without them either being comatose or held down. This sounds like a team effort.

Stig, I’ve been told Dinsdale Piranha nailed your head to the floor.

No, no. Never, never. He was a smashing bloke. He used to give his mother flowers and that. He was like a brother to me.

But the police have film of Dinsdale actually nailing your head to the floor.

Oh yeah, well - he did that, yeah.

Why?

Well he had to, didn’t he? I mean, be fair, there was nothing else he could do. I mean, I had transgressed the unwritten law.

What had you done?

Er... Well he never told me that. But he gave me his word that it was the case, and that’s good enough for me with old Dinsy. I mean, he didn’t want to nail my head to the floor. I had to insist. He wanted to let me off. There’s nothing Dinsdale wouldn’t do for you.

Wonder how the roofers will take it when nail guns are banned.

Good thing they didn’t use so many nails that it could be coined “overkill”.../s

How is that copyright by Reuters? Did they have a Reuters' staff radiologist take it? Did they hire the hospital to take the picture? Maybe Aussie laws are different, but I don't see how Reuters can claim a copyright just because they distributed it.

When nailguns are outlawed, only outlaws will have nailguns!

Lol, I should go over to Youtube and watch some of them. Never saw the originals. When I first started reading it, I thought it might be from the movie ‘Scratch,’ but it’s too wacky even for that.

...penetrating vital areas of the brain.

Assuming there are some non-vital areas? That'd be news to me.
