Unless he happened to cross paths with a navy submarine that could ID his sub, nobody would have had any clue what happened and assumed he was dead.

But I guess if he murdered, dismembered, and ditched the body of a random reporter for who knows what reason, it would be safe to say he wasn't in a rational set of mind
The UC3 Nautilus was not capable of running submerged or traveling long distances. I've never known of it leaving the shallow waters around Copenhagen. It could submerge, but I don't think it was any good at moving at a set depth. It was either running on the surface or making stationary dives and sitting on the bottom at 25 ft.
