A timeline for murder

Can you kill a person in five minutes? And then appear perfectly reasonable when the cops arrive?

These questions were floating through Sheriff Press's mind as she questioned Billy Barnes, who had just discovered his wife had been murdered. 

Why, Press wondered, did it take him five whole minutes from the alleged discovery of her body until the time he called 911?

The more she dug into the story of Billy and Allison Barnes, the more she discovered reason after reason about why he might have killed her. And she wondered, was this the case of a local foot fetish creep escalating to murder, or yet one more horrible example of an enraged husband taking his anger out on the supposed "love of his life"?

This is part 12 of the 8th season of Crime Adjacent: the untold story of the Michigan Nightstalker.
