Parts of her body would later be found buried in a massive hole within the basement of the family's home, other parts were found buried in the garden. Her internal organs, were partially destroyed by a hand crank meat grinder. In this week's episode we break down what led up to this grisly murder, who dubbed Antonio Santamaria 'The Butcher of Galesburg' as well as how he was able to avoid the death penalty.
