He owned the property, lived alone, and spoke to no one. So had the trust fund that paid taxes not been pilfered by the accountant no one would have known that Buchinsky had died.
The city wouldn’t have auctioned the property. The new owners wouldn’t have requested a survey. The surveyor wouldn’t have run into the barn in a sudden thunderstorm. The petrified body of Buchinsky wouldn’t have been found in the antique electric chair.
The coroner wouldn’t have come. The additional room wouldn't have been seen. The bodies from Buchinsky practicing his suicide on vagrants wouldn’t have been discovered.
