SOMERVILLE, Mass. (AP) The deathbed confession of a Massachusetts woman led to the discovery on Thursday of her husband's remains inside a freezer at a self-storage facility, where he's been for at least six years, authorities said. Moments before she died, the woman told one of her two children that she killed her husband in California several years ago, Middlesex District Attorney Martha Coakley said. The children later informed police.

I wonder how her husband feels about this?

He gave the whole thing a chilly reception.

Somebody in WI just got caught with her husband dead in her house since June. She asked a friend to help move him because she was being forced to move. The friend reported her to the police.

She put her husband's remains in a freezer? Man, that's cold.

After she told her children about making Pop a popsicle, she had three words for them:

Integrity.

Integrity.

Integrity.

It doesn't sound like he was frozen. That freezer was sealed with duct tape and put in a storage facility. There was an odor coming from it. Yuck.

Picture this scene. I bought the newspaper at a convenience store the day after Ted Williams passed on to the next life. The women behind the counter reminded me of the old lady in "The Wedding Singer." You know the one I mean? All of about 4 foot 11 and her age matched her weight. All I said to her was "What a shame, Ted Williams passed away" as I looked at the paper with Williams covering the entire front page basically. She said as loud as she could "Shame me ass!!! He was the biggest creep ever."

Small town in KY where I lived at had a mortician that decided to open a side business on the town square. He thought he'd run a sandwhich shop, cold cuts. Folded directly.

Course he was also the county coroner and a life insurance salesman. Guess he'd write bogus policies then declare them dead and collect the payola.

Lives at statesville now.

"Police went to the Planet Self Storage facility in Somerville on Thursday and found the remains inside a freezer that was locked and sealed with duct tape, Coakley said. There was an odor coming from the freezer, she said".
OHMYGOODNESS, I reckon so! Duct tape is a miracle, but eternal it ain't!
