I don't remember. It's something we watched in the last couple of months.
There's a Criminal Minds episode about a serial killer that uses pigs to dispose of the remains of his victims, also one of the Hannibal Lecter movies features Sicilian (Corsican (?)) pigs as the intended disposal method of Hannibal himself.
There is a simple explanation for your observations.
The true crime shows usually only spotlight cases where the killer gets caught. We don’t hear about the smart ones - no body no case.
Or maybe someone was just cellaring a loved one…..
So, is pork better than sulfuric acid? Are you telling me that pork is better?
In the main, that's probably true. But, there are many trials without a corpse. And, many convictions.
I always liked the method where you would send the body through a feed grinder and feed the output to the chickens.
On the series Deadwood, Al Swearengen fed his victims to Mr. Wu’s pigs.
Not many murders get solved. People always jump to the conclusion that these "finds" are perpetrators themselves who got caught up in their own violent web, but of course that is a defensive attitude. An equal number are good folks who see too much, get caught in the wrong place, or are victims of crimes unrelated to their behavior. Lots of gallows humor comes to the rescue. Ask not for whom the bell tolls. A moment of silent prayer for whoever they were. "Stiffs" are the remains of lives.
My 21st birthday was spent covering the discovery of the remains of a disabled veteran who was in the midst of a move, who stopped for a beer and encountered two murderous thieves. The body was discovered decomposed in the August heat, when vultures flew out of a forested roadside, seen by a passing motorist. The crime scene was permeated by the stench, and the sheriff was grasping his nose with a handkerchief scented with (maybe) gasoline. The FBI showed up (interstate crime) and took fingerprints, which were still available. That was my coming of age party.

oh there are some about those cases too. And one of the things that amazes me too are the cops. Either they really impress me or you're like how can the ball get dropped so thoroughly. Oh and don't get caught still not totally in the clear.
If I’m interviewing you and I ask what you have had for breakfast, your day just got longer.
It’s been my experience interviewing that people who commit crimes have alibis, their story and cover stories all nicely in order so the deception game can stay smooth and “believable”
What criminal masterminds don’t have in their mental toolbox are answers to simple questions about mundane stuff.
If I believe the truth isn’t in you, I start the interview over and reintroduce myself, then i have them walk me through their day. Let’s say the fire was at 5pm, just before we get to the fire, in the timeline, I ask, what did you have for breakfast?
It’s crazy how people stumble and fumble over simple questions.
If I really think you’re full of shit, I ask them which shoe they put on first. Nonsensical, yes, but it’s crazy how off balance it makes people, then I hone in on real questions.
Most criminals aren’t very bright, but are smart enough to cause grief.

Perhaps a MUCH larger version of this:
You guys are forgetting the first rule of fight club…
