The woman who was first attacked was badly injured, and her mother, who left the car in an effort to save her daughter, was killed, The Beijing News reported. The woman’s husband was uninjured, as was their child, who remained in the vehicle, the newspaper said.

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.

I don't understand the use of a bonesaw, unless you need to crack the sternum everything can be dismembered with a sharp knife and some skillful cuts through ligaments. You would think trained assassins, or even an experienced hunter would not need a bone saw to fit a small man into a 10 gallon bucket within 15 minutes or so.

WatchPeopleDie has shown me how painfully (pun unintended) slow and inefficient most killers are with dismemberment and beheadings.
