Haven’t you ever seen an old James Cagney movie where a bad guy pulled something from his pocket and hit someone in the back of the head knocking him unconscious with it? That’s called a sap. It’s usually filled with lead shot or other similar material. It’s considered a weapon and I’m not sure but I believe it’s illegal to carry one (kinda like nunchackus).
In the movie ‘Analyze This’, Jelly pulled one from his pocket in the scene where a hit man was about to shoot DeNiro in his hotel room.

Hell, I used to have one and it was filled with lead. This is when I was a kid.

Crap… so basically, they SAPPED her to the back of the head like a trout on a river rock, and burned her in the Jag?
Cripes!

Can you imagine when Craig sapped her, with all of his power with years of his muscle building what her head must have looked like when he got done with her. I said this over a year ago that one of these two mensas would turn on the other and spill their guts to shorten their time in the hole. I guess I was wrong because its almost game time for these two nuts and neither has turned on the other, at least for the time being.

I didn’t see anything in the Grand Jury Transcripts
