Further investigation of the enclosure revealed that the hogs, which each weighed about 700 pounds, had nearly completely eaten the farmer, although some body parts were strewn about the enclosure.

Neighbors of Farmer Garner often stated that he wasn't fit to eat with pigs but, apparently, they were wrong.

Wonder what body parts were left, and what did they do to the pigs? Killed them and did stomach autopsies?
