There was a case in 1986 in Connecticut in which an airline pilot murdered his wife, froze her body, cut it up in pieces using a chain saw, then fed the pieces through a rented wood chipper on a bridge over a lake in the middle of the night during a snow storm. Unfortunately for the murderer, a snow plow operator remembered where he'd seen a chipper in the night. The murderer got 99 years after the prosecution matched teeth found in the chipper output to his wife's dental records.

The Woodchipper Murder Case

Dr. Henry Lee, of OJ and JonBenét fame, led the forensics team.

They had that case on Forensic Files. They fed a pig carcass through the wood chipper to estimate where the remains would go. (in this case the edge of a creek) The culprit also left some of their mail at the scene of the crime, I think.

I saw that on one of those crime shows. Gruesome!
