Summary
We are headed to the Sunshine State this week to discuss the tragic murder of Saleha Huuda. When firefighters are called to put out a brush fire on the side of the road in Gainesville, they are shocked to find a body. When they learn the identity of that body, a beautiful cheerleader from the University of Florida, they are even more shocked. A pattern of abuse emerges leading police to the usual suspect and an unlikely accomplice.
Fun Fact: Coppertone Sunscreen was invented in Miami by pharmacist Benjamin Green. Green served in the Pacific during World War II, and he saw that he and his fellow soldiers needed some way to protect against the sun. He slathered red veterinary petrolatum, or “red vet pet,” as a physical barrier from the sun to prevent ultraviolet rays from hitting his skin. After the war, he added cocoa butter and coconut oil to make it more pleasant to smell which became Coppertone Sunscreen.
