In my (newish) ongoing lunchtime game with some work colleagues, the baddies maybe about to abandon the PCs in a desert to die. Dumping them with no supplies and their grav vehicle, an air/raft, incapacitated. (So the whole thing should look like an unfortunate accident rather than murder.)

Ummmm . . . .

The Bad Guys are leaving them alive and going away? But they want the eventual deaths of the Good Guys to pass for an accident? How are they going to manage that?

What's to keep their victims from recording a video testimonial implicating the Bad Guys? Or if they don't have working electronics, scratching their testimony about what actually happened into the hood of the grav car? Or simply laying out rocks in the form of "WE WERE MURDERED BY XYZ?"
