I used to hang out with hippies and artists and the age range is quite large there. There was this dude in his 70s who would casually talk about the time he helped get rid of a body after a murder acquaintances of his did in the 60s or 70s or something. He was actually put on trial and got convicted in the 80s when one the people who did the actual murder couldn’t live with the guilt and confessed but managed to get it overturned when he appealed and got acquitted, in part because they never found the body because like 5 years after they disposed of it they put a new highway right over it. Old people are fucking wild lol
Worked in a call center once connecting terminally Ill old people to nurses (a specialized aska nurse line essentially).
My job was just to call people who needed a call back and then hand them off to a nurse when they answered the phone. I’m talking like 15 seconds of phone time with these people on average.
The shit I heard in those 15 seconds was wild.
“Can’t talk, I’m on the other line with Jesus” was one of my favorite dark replies from a person with essentially terminal COPD.
But there were plenty of “I lived a bad life, I know why this is happening to me” type digressions.
Jeez! Thats really something. I would still assume they just didn’t go to church enough and thought this was their reckoning or so. In any case, you have guts my friend. That would have ruined my mental health.
I’m convinced it’s because a shit load of old people have committed, and so far gotten away with, serious crimes at some point.
Random calls from “authority” decades later stun locks their brain in a memory loop.

Thats equally dark and intriguing. Can you elaborate how you arrived at this conclusion? What serious crimes have you „believably“ heard of so far?
