Is it possible that somebody could be electrocuted in a bath by a Tazer without the murderer being electrocuted themselves when they put it in the water?

If they just dropped it in, I would think so. I'm pretty sure the wires would stop the electrical current from coming back at you...
You might want to take a gander at the Mythbusters episode were they did the water stun-gun... not exactly the same, but it might help...

The only way around that which I can see would be if they threw it into the water.
EDIT: Although... wait, how would that work?

Is the tazer powerful enough to kill someone? I've only seen ones that can knock you out from shock or pain or something...
If it is, and they're not in the bathtub, they're just fine. If they're wearing rubber gloves, they're just fine. If they are in the tub, they better have on a lot of rubber...
Would you mind if I asked a question? I don't want to make an entire topic just for this question, and it still involves electricity...
A--------B. Guy B is holding a chain attaching himself to guy A. Lightning hit guy B. Would it kill guy A? What shape would he be in if it didn't kill him?
(Sorry if this question bugs you!)
