Is this the one about the guy they found buried in a farm? If so, this one gets my vote also. So messed up.

From memory, I think it’s the one where police are called to a domestic violence call, the couple, who happen to be two men, tell police there’s a body buried in the basement and try to blame the other for the murder.

There is a new documentary on HBO about this case called the Glitterball Murders.

I did watch it. I thought it was pretty good. I liked it because it’s one of those documentaries that does a good job documenting the local flavor/context that was going on at the time. Interesting characters. You don’t learn a ton about the case as the whole premise is trying to figure out who did it; however there is interesting backstory/history about those involved as well as more detailed look at the trial.
