Cop kills someone (allegedly by accident) and then the police bury him in a pauper’s grave and don’t inform any relevant parties.

>> These things happen.

No, they really don’t. That’s why it has made national news.

I secondly agree with you. You can't just even pauper graveyards. That is all terrible.
A charitable reading of the post you're responding to would probably note some sarcasm in that quoted line.
Oops! Definitely. It actually looks to have been a clever use of irony. The internet is such a hard place to be clever though, in that people tend to take things at face value.
I believe defrost was being satirical.
