I taught my cousin how to do liver flushes to help cure his eczema. Funny he found epsom salts to be very useful for cleaning out his guts for many reasons. This time, to fight crime.
One morning before he went out to work, he saw his friend policeman apprehend a snatcher. The woman he snatched the necklace from was furious, the snatcher had allegedly swallowed her necklace to conceal the evidence.
My cousin asked his policeman friend to wait for him as he brought out a tool that will have the snatcher crapping right away. He came back with his epsom salts and mixed 3 tablespoons in a glass of water. While the snatcher was handcuffed on a chair, they forced him to drink the concoction. In a few short minutes the snatcher was crapping in his shorts and out came the necklace he swallowed!
Funny and true story. For all you cops out there with criminals swallowing the evidence… epsom salts are for you!
