Treasure Hunter Wants To Find Bin Laden's Body With ROV

Posted by samzenpus on from the davey-jones'-money-locker dept.

Kittenman writes "Slate is carrying some details of how eccentric treasure hunter Bill Warren is proposing looking for the body of Osama Bin Laden in the Arabian sea. He plans on using sonar, and a remotely operated submersible. If he finds the remains, he'll photograph them to confirm Bin Laden's death to the world. Warren says, 'There is still a $25 million reward that no one has collected, and the reward says dead or alive, well, if -- in fact -- he is dead, then I could collect the $25 million reward. Why not?'"

    Perhaps The Hague might pay a bounty for providing evidence of a rogue state conducting unlawful assassinations on foreign territory?
