So the policeman left the house and made a note to himself to check back with him. Later that day, the man was in his garage working on some hobby stuff. The police man that had been there earlier before had returned back for the phone number. This visit the policeman walked into the garage and asked the man if he had that number for him. The man replied back, "OH yeah I forgot! I'll be right back with the phone book. I think I remember where she put it. Wait out here. OK." So when the man went into the house the policeman waited.

The cop browsed around through the man's garage. He noticed his tools and then he caught sight of a freezer. The Hispanic man walked back into the garage holding the phone book in his hand. "Here it is. Let me thumb through it for my mother-in-law's phone number." The policeman told him, “Take your time Sir." The cop asked the man pointing to the freezer, "I notice you have a freezer here. Do you store meats in there?" The man replied, “Oh that old thing. I got that at a garage sale a year ago. It's great!" The cop noticed there was a lock on the freezer door. He questioned the man, "Why is there a lock on your freezer? The man replied, "Funny thing, I lost the key and can't seem to find it."

The cop said well it’s getting late and do you have that phone number yet? The man told the officer that number must be in another phone book. "I'll go and check if I can find it." The cop explained to the man," I really need to clear this up before my shift is over. I'm looking forward to going home without any paper work". The Hispanic man said he would try harder to find the phone number. So he went back into the house and the Cop remained in the garage patiently.

The cop walked back to his squad car and radioed some back up. He said he had a gut feeling and the guy was giving him the run around. He asked the watch commander over the Police Radio if he could check out what the contents of the freezer were. The watch commander told him to wait for his back up and then proceed when they arrived. So the cop got out of the car and went back to the house. Another cop is pulling up and the man walks back out. He again said, “I’m sorry I can't find her phone number. Please give me another day or so." The cop said, " Well that not good Sir. I must ask you to open the freezer so I can get a look inside. The man replied back, “I told you. I lost the key."

The cop radioed his boss told him everything and soon a search warrant was served on the man. The cop called the Fire department to come out and open the freezer. When they got there, the man stood by watching in silence. The fireman took an axe and hit it a few times. The firemen open the door and at first it looked ok. But when he looked closer he noticed small packages with labels dating last week. The cop noticed this and asked the man "Exactly when did you lose the key? The man shrugged his shoulders and replied, “I don't remember." One of the officers opened one of the packages and noticed some long dark hairs wrapped into some meat. The officer dropped it out of shock and they immediately arrested the man.

After pulling out all the remains they found his wife, his two young girls and an elderly neighbor who lived just next door.

Thinking about this story makes me sick. I told my family about my dream the morning after I had dreamt it. They brought it up when we were watching the news and thought that it was a warning dream of the events that took place. I dismissed it as a nightmare.
