Brad Beer recounts suspect’s alleged confession after detective challenged his denials in a missing-woman case

What was said

"She goes, "You keep saying that's not it. What is it?" And he goes, "I killed her, cut her up in six pieces, and threw her in the river.""

Brad Beer describes a missing-woman investigation in which, he says, investigators initially underestimated one of two suspects due to first-impression bias (“horns and halos”). Beer recounts that after hours of questioning, a detective entered and pressed the smaller suspect more directly, and Beer says the man then confessed to killing the woman and disposing of her body.
