Show Notes

As Bessie walked along the road, the murderer raised the stake up to shoulder height and brought it down with his full force on her head. The attacker then brought the 4 foot long sharpened fence stake down on her head again….. and again….. and again. The murderer then dragged her body into the ditch at the side of the road so it wouldn’t be seen by passers by.
