I'm personally working under the conclusion that the whole thing was fake and ghey and the guy isn't even dead. I'm always surprised to find they've never memory-holed this article:
Before I even knew that surveillance footage existed, I thought he was still alive. A little after Khashoggi was "murdered", some high-profile Christian pastor who had been arrested (in Turkey, IIRC) was released.

Could be. But I lean towards the former theory.
But this is still plausible.
