"That Guy" in EFR class

[ToddG]

Sounds like your instructor is not in control of their own class, too bad.

I don't feel that way, nor do any of the other students from what I can tell. As an instructor myself, I can sympathize with her situation.

Unless you have a 1:1 teacher:student ratio, you can't watch every single person every single moment. That's why you make sure your students understand the safety guidelines and you empower them to take action if someone starts to violate safety protocols. That's what we do on a hot range, and that's what she did (though I'm sure she sees it in different terms) with this class.

She's not a drill sergeant and Indiana definitely isn't a boot. While I'd love to see her eject him (or make him run laps), it's not likely to happen so long as she feels he's salvageable.

So my real question is this, assembled medical experts: how much lime do I need to decompose a 300# body?

This isn't the right question for someone with a JD to ask. The proper question is how do you make it justifiable so you don't need the lime?

You could recommend that he take some shooting courses with Tactical Response.

Quicklime aka burnt lime=Calcium Oxide. This is what you put on decomposing flesh to assist the process.

Lye is Sodium Hydroxide.

Actually, FWIW - either will SLOW the decomposition process of a buried DB. And - very few fires burn long enough or hot enough to get rid of a body.

caustic soda is much effective. 55gal barrels are easy to come by as well.

Todd, its funny you mention this, because I took an Emergency Care Attendent (First Responder) class and we also had a village idiot. However, even our idiot didn't commit BSI crimes as severe as yours.

And of course, this guy didn't pass the class.

We covered childbirth today.

Guess who drives around with an OB kit in his trunk?
