1972, Chicago 7:00 a.m. That was when the mystery murders started. At first they were easy to solve, until one became a true mystery in 1974. I was sleeping in my bed with my wife Nicole right beside me until I woke up to the smell of something at 6:00. I check my hands, there's blood all over them. Huh, thats weird I was here all night.
