BODY
Jason tipped the garbage can emptying the contents, but stopped abruptly when he saw a woman’s body fall into the truck.
He called the police and each resident of the apartment complex were questioned to see if anyone saw the woman’s body being placed in the garbage can.
After weeks of investigating the murder of the woman, the detectives did not have a suspect.
No one came forward to claim the body and there were no reports on her in the missing person’s file.
Detective Overlook stopped by the apartment complex to give a complete report to the apartment manager and while speaking with him, the manager’s young son, Thomas, was listening to the conversation.
“Mr. detective did you take papa’s mannequin from the garbage can?” Thomas asked.

Thank you. Actually, it was a real body, and the manager’s young son was told it was a mannequin because his father did not want him to tell the police he saw his father put a body in the garbage. I’m afraid I did not make that clear enough in my story.
