Then he walked into a police station and told everything.The mother was arrested. She had staged the scene to look like a suicide. She had used her husband's hand to pull the trigger after he was already dead. She had wiped down the gun. She had called 911 with convincing panic. She thought she had committed the perfect murder. She did not know that her nine-year-old son was listening from the next room. The son's testimony convicted her. She is serving life in prison. The son visits her every month. She refuses to speak to him.Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play because the mother planned the perfect murder. Her son spoke up. And the perfect murder fell apart.
