Wanna give it a try? I think I know where some bodies are, 20 inches beneath the soles of your shoes under the concrete floor of a hospital parking garage in Springfield, Misssouri. GPR shows a Mafia-style burial. We cannot convince the local cops to investigate the find and we've been trying for more that 4 years. Call my friend investigative reporter Kathee Baird in Springfield, Missouri at 417 224 1897 for all the details. Do you think it would work after 18 years? Wanna give it a try?
