Murder of a sex doll: 5hr probe reveals 'dead body' was not what German police thought
A sex doll was found in the woods in a German city, which was initially mistaken to be the dead body of a female. It came as a rude shock to the police. World Trending
When the German police were informed about a naked female "dead body" in the woods, little did they know it would turn out to be something unimaginable. A murder inquiry was initiated, and the demolition site where it was found was cordoned off.
A dog walker found the "dead body" in a secluded area in a small German city and immediately called the police. Within minutes, homicide and forensic officers, along with pathologists with a bunch of equipment descended on the so-called crime scene. Investigations continued for five hours. Someone then touched the body and realised it wasn't a real human but a sex doll.
The incident was reported in the city of Rostock at 8 pm on Saturday (March 29). Police officers and others investigating the crime scene came with drones and a specialist 3D scanner.

All the formalities linked to a murder scene began. The evidence was collected and photographed. The "dead body" was measured using a ruler, and people were told to stay away. A funeral director was also hired to transport the body to a morgue.
After five hours of work, one of the officers touched the "body" and realised it wasn't real. It seemed to have been made with synthetic material, and so they realised what they were dealing with.

Whoever dumped the sex doll had burned it and stuffed it into a blue bag. It looked so real that the officers didn't notice that what they had been investigating wasn't a real human dead body. The funeral director was informed about the discovery and asked to leave.

Sex doll found on Thai beach
A similar incident occurred in Thailand in 2022 when beachgoers spotted a "naked body" in Bangkok. It only had a t-shirt over its head. Police received several calls about it and rushed to the site. But the "naked body" turned out to belong to a $604 sex doll.
