Challenge: Plot a murder

[vorlon13]

septic tank for an inconvenient corpse springs to mind . . .

Killing a specific person: I would rig their headphones to explode during the second chorus of 'Dancing Queen'. 

Boru

Now that's just cruel!
You just had to torture them first, didn't you?

You kill a complete stranger somewhere completely random.

Not as easy as you think. For one there are security cameras everywhere, then you have to figure out weapon of choice, then where you'll do it and the logistics behind it like will there be people with this person, will there be people around this person, how would you lure this person somewhere isolated and many other things, after that an alibi that you were somewhere else at that time and after all these you have to make sure you don't leave any of your hair, marks, blood or anything that could connect to you from the body

You've never been outside a city or town, have you?

Lol...Medication error. And/or "accidental" overdose. 

Happens all the time.

In my area of the world, death by overdose is incredibly common. It would be trivial to buy some heroin and inject a fatal amount into someone.

Yes, but that could arouse suspicion if the victim didn't have a history of abusing street drugs. Prescription meds are almost effortless to procure. Plus, odds are good that the victim would have his/her own supply that could be used. It wouldn't even have to be a Schedule drug to get the job done.
 
Even the most commonly prescribed BP/cardiac meds can drop someone quick, with a little know-how. 

And it would all just seem like a tragic, tragic accident; No muss, no fuss.
And no "crime" scene.

Seems like a clean way of dispatching an enemy, if one were writing a crime novel...or inclined to actually do such a thing. 
Which I wouldn't, of course. I'm no killer.

[Jackalope]

Meh, just push 'em down the stairs.

Ooops!

[Athene]

Lol...yeah, that would work.

Keeping in line with the whole perfect murder looks like an accident theme.

[Joods]

Meh, just push 'em down the stairs.

Ooops!

But what if they survive the fall? The push has to be "just right". 

Also - you need to correct amount of stairs to make it work.

It's much harder to be convicted of murder when no body is ever found. Hiding the body someplace where it will never be found is top priority. But don't put a dead body in the trunk of your car for any amount of time because cadaver dogs can smell that long after the body is gone.

Then you gotta be sure you are untraceable on the day you do the deed. Dont turn off your cell phone, though. Instead just leave it at home. Don't stop for gas anywhere, or anywhere else that may have a camera.

Make sure you don't do searches on how to commit murder on any of your devices.

If you might potentially leave footprints, buy shoes well ahead of time (using cash, not credit card) that are a different size than your feet. Then dispose of them afterwards. Along with everything else you're wearing. (And this does not mean tossing them in your garbage at home)

And obviously all the DNA stuff. If theres gonna be blood, dont do it at your house bc evidence of it will stay there despite all your clean up. Wear gloves, a hair net, etc.

For an alibi, have a really really long movie streaming from the internet at your place and just say you were home watching a movie that day. They'll be able to see the movie was playing by checking your internet history. It's not a great alibi, but at least it's something.

Remind me not to piss you off, lol.

I agree about getting rid of the body. If I was still in Florida, I would fasten lead weights to it, take it off-shore beyond the continental shelf and consign it to the depths. They're not going to dredge for a body in thousands of feet of water, miles off-shore. It's gone for good.
