The Effects of Household Corrosive Substances on the Dissolution of Complete Pig (Sus scrofa) Carcasses
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Caustic substance submersion has been a known method of body dispersal in homicides, and its use continues today in cases involving organized crime. Additional research is necessary to determine whether a complete body can be fully dissolved usingcaustic substances and at what rates. The present study submerged two complete 10-to 15-kg fresh, never-frozen, juvenile pigs (Sus scrofa) in each of three different household corrosive substances (37% sulfuric acid, 31.45% hydrochloric acid, and 18–28% sodium hydroxide) under controlled conditions to simulate the way in which complete human remains would react to common household corrosives. The goal of this project was to determine which corrosive substance could most rapidly dissolve a body or reduce it to a slurry. Hydrochloric acid achieved complete dissolution in one week, sulfuric acid achieved complete dissolution in five weeks, and sodium hydroxide achieved near-complete dissolution in eight weeks. Certain household corrosive substances are therefore effective in complete body dissolution.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
