He said, there was.

What's that?

Great paused for a few seconds, then softly, he said he had been thinking about it.

Okay.

Great said he wasn't sure of the exact year, but he wanted to talk about a cold case from around 2005 or 2006, a full decade earlier.

He said a murder victim was found in nearby Marion County, but the body was never identified.

Great said Dana traveled door to door selling magazines and had sold a subscription to his mom.

But he said his mother never got those magazines.

And all I heard was my mom just complaining and griping.

Grade said he felt he had to do something about his mom's complaints.

At that time, Grade was living in his grandparents' house.

He said a woman came by to sell magazines.

Grade assumed she was Dana, the salesperson who spoke with his mom.

He invited her in.

According to Great, he pulled Dana into the living room and strangled her until she passed out.

Then he dragged her to the basement, but she woke up.

He went upstairs, grabbed a knife, and stabbed her in the neck.

Great said he had people over for a bonfire at the house that evening and left her dead body in the basement all night.

He put a couch in front of the basement door so no one would accidentally find her.

The next morning, he said he dumped her body in the woods.
