According to an affidavit by FBI Special Agent Nicholas Manns, one plan Nash explored involved forcing the intended victim into a hot tub and electrocuting him by tossing in a radio and the intended victim's cat, with the hope of misleading authorities into thinking he was accidentally killed by the pet.

I wonder if the bathroom had GFCI outlets?

Maybe the murder plotter could take some consolation in that sharing a hot tub with a panicked cat would be a pretty unpleasant experience.

On the other hand, even with a GFCI, the current had to flow into the tub for at least some short time (about 1/30 of a second). I'm thinking the panicked cat would want to be as far away from that hot tub as possible, with the aspiring murderer's head and face being a reasonably safe distance from the tub.

This would make a great movie scene!

I had my kitten listed here in July. I had lost her the next month. :frown: Though I coudnt afford a memorial for her in real life, I created an online memorial here. It still has some work to do as everything I did there was from my mobile. I found this website which offers free hosting after a bit of searching. I recommend this site to others who have lost their pets and couldn't do anything lasting in their rememberance. I would also like to know if there are other better sites.
