Wait, nobody bothered to verify it was someone dead?
That's the dumb part. You check to see if the body is dead. Jfc.
"No pulse, no breathing, no cranial nerve reflexes – this woman is quite obviously dead."
Looks surprised by her death too
Someone slapped her on the back when she was making that face.
Honestly, though 31 hours seems a bit excessive, I don't blame them for being cautious. If it was a body, they'd be smart to document everything in the area and carefully navigate so as not to contaminate the crime scene. Lots of important evidence could be destroyed by someone just walking up and moving the body.
I'd rather them be careful and thorough with what turns out to be a sex doll than be callous and clumsy with an actual body.
They could have just poked it with a damn stick of they were so confused, geez.
