Summary
This week, in Springfield, Tennessee, a very calm 911 call, in the middle of the night, reveals a man who claims to have killed his wife, and put her in a freezer... only to have her "come back to life", causing him to flee. What detectives discover is a horrible scene, and a VERY dead woman. What happened? Will they catch this man?? It's an absolutley wild story!!
Along the way, we find out that this town is a mecca for country music video filming, that it's extremely weird to give a 911 dispatcher a totally calm recounting of a murder, and that if you shoot someone, partially dismember, and freeze them, they definitely aren't coming back to life!!
