I thought it was a bit weird that they dumped the body so fast in the ocean, but it makes sense. Apparently it's the Islamic practice to bury a body within 24 hours of death, and they didn't want there to be a grave that supporters could visit. This way, the US can't be accused of disrespecting the body by Muslims.
