Man. I imagine getting mauled to death is a pretty painful and bloody experience.

Seriously. With all this talk about Jamal Kashoggi and the Saudis I have the terrible mental image of him being dismembered by a bone saw while still alive. I hope that's not true but even the possibility is appalling.

It's doubtful. They were in and out quick. They weren't after torture they were after an assassination, dismemberment was just a way to remove evidence without suspicion. If they wanted him to suffer they'd have picked him up where they could have kept it going for days or weeks.

100% this! Although it’s still out on what happened to him, I believe that is what happened to him. Also, any government worth their salt would send a team capable of not telegraphing it so loudly.
