Default Lake Meade is receding and bodies are surfacing!

Eek. A 50 year old body in a barrel and more expected. Image too graphic to link here probably but a google image search shows it. It's just bones now.

Remember in "Casino", Joe Pesci said that most of the world's problems were buried in the desert? It would appear that SOME of them were dumped into Lake Meade.

Thanks. Brad.

We were warned how dangerous Lake Meade was. We just thought the guy meant waves.

I’m here feet on the ground. Only one body has been found in a barrel. The stories are saying from the 70’s because of the style of leather shoes. I’m sure there are several bodies at the bottom. No different than any river with a bridge going over it🙀

Yeah. I am very sure people who jump off bridges land in barrels. 🙄

Dollars to doughnuts, the majority of the bodies that turn up will have holes in the backs of their skulls. Welcome to Vegas.

Thanks. Brad.

I watched the interview of the two girls that found it. Reporters on news said natural death. They don’t report all the people over the years that have drowned in a couple hundred feet of water and never resurface 🙀

..."It was the second set of human remains found at Lake Mead, the country's largest reservoir, as water levels plunge. The first body, discovered on May 1, was likely a murder victim who died from a gunshot wound "some time in the mid '70s to early '80s, based on clothing and footwear the victim was found with," according to a new release from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police."The lake has drained dramatically over the last 15 years," Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Homicide Lieutenant Ray Spencer said at the time, noting "it's likely that we will find additional bodies that have been dumped in Lake Mead" as the water level drops more."
