In one of my first jobs out of high school, I had someone I worked with confessed to helping someone in a murder where the victim's head was fed to hogs.
A couple of days later, some hikers found the body out in the country a couple miles from my home.
On a hog farm in Iowa I worked on, a 150 pound pig managed to get in with pigs that had about 100 pounds on him. He was killed and eaten with very little to be found.

I feel I should contribute something here, as this is pretty much right in my wheelhouse (I have a degree in ...well, this, basically).
If you're talking about a fictional story that involves disposing of a body after the fact, then my pick is Breaking Bad's acid bath. Except, I wouldn't have my characters use hydrofluoric acid, as that stuff is scary to work with as it is also a contact poison (even just a splash the size of your palm can be absorbed into the bloodstream and kill you). Also, there are better methods. If I were writing a fictional story, I'd use the Breaking Bad method, but instead of hydrofluoric acid I would use sodium hydroxide at a specific saturated solution level. And then you can use your bathtub. After, simply flush everything down the drain.
Then all you need to do is ensure you've been able to hide the actual crime scene, which is an entirely different topic.

I've always wondered how effective that would be. I mean aside from the potential blood splatter there really is nothing to tie you to the crime is there?
Except for witnesses, security cameras, blood spatter, ballistics, GSR, footprints and trace DNA evidence (there will almost always be DNA evidence). Entomology will create a narrow timeframe, and the victim's background investigation will likely turn up possible motives to help narrow down the list of persons of interest.

Busy space lots of dna around so very hard to pick up on what was the killer's. and to completely make sure it would have to random of course. gloves and a change of clothes. and just ditch the gun in a bin somewhere miles away.
Sneak some rat poison in his drinks, blow him up or take him out when he's sleeping.
I thought this thread was about disposing a body not making one. Though if we're moving into that range then I guess this could get even more..... v&able.

Conspiracy to commit murder.

Then when they are done get em to kill themselves?

There are at least four major problems with this scenario, not counting the notion that "completely random" implies psychological preconditions rarely associated with careful planning.
