The highway patrol confession

Bruce Kramer showed up at the Highway Patrol’s Jefferson City office last week. He told officers working there that he had killed his wife and was there to “fess up.” The Cole County sheriff says a butcher knife and Kramer’s photo ID were found next to the body of Roberta Kramer. It appeared she’d been lying beside the road for some time because heavy overnight rains had washed mud into her clothes. He’s been charged with second-degree murder.
