if i sailed out to international waters(where there is no law) and killed someone could i get done for murder?

Christ

There is law, and yes you could....

your "Dad" (God) made that law. "thou shall not kill"

I think it would fall under the juristiction of the country in which the vessel is registered.

i]If you weighted the body right - it would be aliftime before they found it.
The worst you ll get is manslaughter

It's quite complex but usually the country where the vessel is registered, but then some countries may not act or it may be very difficult to get them to act. But it is furthe complicated by things such as what the last port of departure was. eg: if it was the US and a US citizen was involved then the US authorities would get involved.

After that there is a whole load of international law that applies for things such as piracy, drug smuggling, murder etc.

rap the body in chicken wire with a few concrete blocks. the body sinks to the sea bed, and the fish can get in through the wire to "dispose" of the body. hth
