Strangulation The New Blow To The Head, Says Hired Killer Magazine

NEW YORK—Strangulation has replaced a violent blow to the skull as the hot new way to eliminate a target, according to the May issue of Hired Killer magazine. “Striking the occipital was fine in the easygoing ’90s—an audible thump and a sloppily collapsing body fit the casual feel of the times,” read the article by Jonathan Grecco. “But the elegant silence of a strangle kill, and the skill that its proper execution demands, are too-too today, especially when a monofilament line is used to modernize this classic.” The May issue also features 10 Ways First-Time Trigger-Men Screw Up A Body Disposal.
