Agreed, I was responding to a comment that claimed the river couldn't move a body.I'm not the only person on the thread pointing out that owners of large houses build structures in rivers. Some of these structures might not be all that obvious to a casual observer.
There are some areas where eddies form and also in holes you can get situations where the current flowing across may deposit objects into an area below where the water is stationary or moving in the opposite direction.
It isn't as simple as the whole lot is moving. Yes it is all going towards the sea but some objects especially submerged objects may be trapped in certain areas. Apparently this includes the deep holes where objects may be deposited and covered in more deposited material over time.
The theory being that if a body found its way into one of these deep hole areas it may become covered with other materials until a flood event flushes the whole lot out.
