Investigators trying to solve the mystery of how the mutilated body of a 16-year-old from North Carolina ended up dropped on a posh Milton lawn are asking Logan International Airport officials to probe if the boy stowed away on a jet.
“We’ve been requested to look into the possibility of that,” Logan spokesman Phil Orlandella told the Herald this morning.

With all the airport security, how does a kid climb in a wheel well and fly out? Could have been a bomb instead.
Feeling safe Logan flyers?
Your airport is a mess..just like the rest of the state.
Meat bombs.
The theory is that his body fell out of a plane from North Carolina approaching Logan. Sounds plausible, to a first order. Read the article, the body was horribly mutilated, perhaps consistent with a fall from a great height.
Boy, that TSA security is working great, isn't it.
What a farce.
“the body was horribly mutilated, perhaps consistent with a fall from a great height.”
That, or he didn’t quite avoid the landing gear when it was retracted after takeoff.
The boy was pushed from a plane or helicopter
pushed not fell
it’s a scenario that has been on a number of cop shows

kid was dealing, something went haywire
Why would a kid stow away in a wheel with no shirt no ID, that’s not what they are looking for
it’s a way of life in the ghetto
Yep. This stunt has been related in a couple of bad adventure novels in the past few years.
The only attempt at security on our airports is at the passenger gates. The rest of the airport is protected by nothing more than a chain link fence, most of it in unobservable areas.
The aircraft sit overnight unattended and unguarded. There are no locks on doors and hatches on commercial jets. There are at least a half a dozen hidey-holes large enough to carry a stow-away on every jet in commercial service.
There are hundreds of service personnel that access the airport ramp every day, and this goes on 24/7. There is no accounting for all these people.
As has been mentioned here many times, airport “security” is nothing but theatrics.

BINGO!

It’s a good thing that we are immortal at that age.
TSA screeners are not screened - as is also the case with most airline employees. There are 100 ways in and out of an airport and the airline and airport employees know them all.
Airliners are not safe from the people who have the closest and unsupervised access to planes - airline and airport employees. But still, the problem is ignored in favor of harassing passengers.
Terminal velocity for a human is in the 100 mi/h plus range from high altitudes. I don’t know if people break apart when they hit, especially on a lawn. I don’t think that is common.
Maybe his ‘friends’ beat the hell out of him, hit him with a car, put him in a compactor, or some other sick job. Then they tossed him on the lawn.
Maybe these folks who own the house are a random pick or maybe they or their kids have “connections.”

Falls from great heights disrobe the victims. If he fell from a aircraft wheel well as the gear came down, it would be quite normal for him to lose his shirt and id. Many victims of very high falls from planes that break up in flight are found nude.
Geez, no friggin' kidding.
They don’t lower the landing gear until they are on final - low & slow.
