Well, I have a feeling the car thief catching car may be out of comission a bit longer. I think they are gonna have to resolve those liability issues.

Plus, who's gonna steal a car that smells that bad anyway.

Yes, Fatality by Flashlight is much more common than, say, Fatality by Brother Puttin' a Cap in Yo' Butt.

No, they just smash your windows at an intersection, drag you out of your car and smash you head in with a brick. They only use their bullets on each other.

"They only use their bullets on each other."

I guess it's more satisfying to smash whitey in the skull, eh? More of that Leftist "tolerance" we keep hearing about?

New model police car:
The Perp Hotel, they check in, but they don't check out...

If you remember, it was not tolerance, it was praise.

There are actually companies that specialize in getting rid of such odors, as surprising as it may sound. Apparently there is a market (albeit small).

Also, you could live for a few days if you were healthy, with the exception of overheating or dehydration.

During a hot Georgia summer?

This is an easy one. Drunk, looking for a place to sleep it off, finds an unlocked car and crawls inside. Car designed to trap thieves, traps drunk instead. He is cooked to death the next day as car bakes in summer sun.

At first, I doubted you're theory, thinking that one could kick out the windows.

Then, up pops a memory of uhhh...a "friend", who in his younger days, passed out drunk in his car during spring break in Panama city, and was so plastered that he didn't wake up until around 1 in the afternoon.

I...I mean my "friend", was so hangover, and baked from the Florida heat, that he probably couldn't have kicked out a car window.

Another possibility is the dead guy had previously ingested a fatal dose of heroin or coke right before he climbed in the car.

You mean they don't just hang a bunch of those little scented Christmas tree things from the rear view mirror like Walter Mathau?
