Expensive way to off someone... why use a rusty shiv when a few grams of one of the most rare elements will do.
I know I wouldn't like to have been the guy using the "serving" plate next.

Kinda makes a compelling argument that its a murder by a nation state dosen't it. What a stupid footprint.
However, from what I understand, this stuff is a guaranteed death sentence, whereas a rusty shiv isn't. And its going to be impossible to track this murder back to the RVS with DNA evidence, blood trails, and witness statements whereas a violent crime is usually easily solvable.
