Rigger Mortis

Rigger Mortis is one of Olive Specter's many husbands. He died an early death, and, as with Olive's other husbands (including her ex-lover Earl E. DeMise, who left  Olive at the altar), it is suggested that perhaps,  Olive murdered him. This theory has not been proved, yet it is a strong possibility. Rigger is buried in the cemetery on Olive's lot in Strangetown. His name is a play on "rigor mortis", the process of the stiffening of muscles in the body shortly after death has occurred. He died in a fire.
