They say a dead body smells like rotting meat - but with a thick, syrupy, sweet undertone. It’s the sweet part that makes most people want to vomit. But these days heavy chemicals are used in morgues to neutralize those smells - but working in a morgue is far from easy.

The students at the University of the Philippines sacrificed partying on the weekends to work at the University hospital - inside the morgue. One day, the students curiously watched as police officers ran into the morgue. They had two bodies covered in white sheets. They warned the students - it was gruesome, bloody, and one victim had evidence of being assaulted and tortured by at least a few killers.

The students held their breath as they peeled back the sheet. They stood in horror to see their friends from college laying on the cold steel tables.

This case would lead to the vanishing of a police officer, 7 high profile killers being thrown in jail with a combined sentence of nearly 2,000 years, and even the President getting involved.
