    LOL... but they were likely drinking dead-body water for almost a year.

    Its funny that it only just now started to "taste bad".

    It's not ALL of Mexico, like the thread title makes it seem.
    Water preserved the body without it releasing any acidity or toxins detectable in the water by the human tongue. It only now started "tasting" dead.

    What's with water tanks and deaths? Y'all remember this one?

    I spent some time down in Mexico a few years ago. Dead body or no dead body I avoided drinking the water down there and always asked for bottle water or bottle soda's with no ice. This was advice given to me by my Mexican friends. I still got adventurous and ate a bunch of street food though.. ahhh greasy taco's in brown bags that are about to fall through from all the grease. yummy i'm getting hungry now

    I was thinking the same thing. From reading the article though it sounds like the ex either killed her or had her killed after he realized she wasn't interested. Maybe they got the water tank idea from the other death, or it was just convenient...either way...

    Not just when you're in Mexico but you shouldn't drink the water when you go to most foreign countries. I'm assuming you know that but incase you didn't, now you do. :)
