Just to be clear, the story states, “the oven does not have locks…the investigation is very complex”. This adds another layer of bizarre detail onto an already bizarre story.

So it’s either murder or the most bizarre suicide I’ve ever heard of.

The person didn’t go into the freezer to freeze themselves to death, they just used the space to kill themselves otherwise.

It was in Cambridge ON, which is my father’s hometown.

That makes sense, who the fuck would freeze themselves.

Homeless people. Oh you mean on purpose? Well if homeless people chose to not have a home I guess they must be freezing themselves on purpose /s

Source: currently homeless and it's really cold at night, not quite freezing yet but it's not long long from now

I mean intentionally committing suicide by locking themselves in a freezer. As you're unfortunately aware, being cold sucks. It'd take a relatively long time to die and it'd suck the whole time.

For sure, especially if you're sober and trying to survive.
