Warwickshire Police said it was with ‘great relief’ when they discovered the life-size doll

Police closed off a road for two days to investigate a report of a dead body dumped in woods - only to find out it was a discarded sex doll.

Warwickshire Police said it was with “great relief” that the hand and foot spotted poking out of undergrowth turned out to be an inflatable love aid.

    Wait, nobody bothered to verify it was someone dead?

    That’s the dumb part. You check to see if the body is dead. Jfc.

      “No pulse, no breathing, no cranial nerve reflexes – this woman is quite obviously dead.”

      Honestly, though 31 hours seems a bit excessive, I don’t blame them for being cautious. If it was a body, they’d be smart to document everything in the area and carefully navigate so as not to contaminate the crime scene. Lots of important evidence could be destroyed by someone just walking up and moving the body.

      I’d rather them be careful and thorough with what turns out to be a sex doll than be callous and clumsy with an actual body.

      They could have just poked it with a damn stick of they were so confused, geez.
