Maybe he died of natural causes but didn’t buy the Colonial Penn life insurance policy to cover his funeral expenses.

“cleanly amputated, suggesting the work of a professional”
That narrows it down to any one of Minnesota’s 300,000 deer hunters. If not them, then look at WI, MT, AK, ID, CO, NB, KS, or anywhere else big game is harvested.
My grandkids can do that & make it look factory. SMH!
