This case is BANANAS, Misfits. When character actor Albert Dekker failed to show up for a planned date with his fiancée, she grew concerned. When she went to his apartment to see if he was okay, she fainted at what she saw.

No one could have imagined his life would end the way it did, but did detectives make the right call? Or did they rush the investigation in order to quickly close the case? Let us know what you think because we're still unsure. This one's a doozy!
