Shownotes Transcript
Two dismembered torsos are found near residential properties, making them unidentifiable for three weeks. Finally, by chance, police get a lead from a man simply walking down the road. Luckily, this was just the lead police needed to find out who committed such an atrocious crime - one for which the motive varies.
