Police have determined who put the body of an 81-year-old former nurse in a home freezer in Allied Gardens, a suburb of San Diego: It was her husband, who died in February, weeks after the body was discovered.

But the cause of death and motive are still unknown.

Julie and I have an agreement that if one of us predeceases the other — which is, of course, likely — the survivor will not put the body of the deceased in a home freezer.

Unless it involves an awesome prank, in which case anything goes.
