On July 3, 2012, a group of students vacationing on Portsmouth Beach in Southsea, England discovered something wrapped in a pink shower curtain and trash bags on the rocks of the beach. It was determined that the item in question was the dismembered torso of 30-year-old David Guy. Three days later, David's pelvis and legs were also located on the beach. On July 8, 2012, a confused, disheveled, and dirty 47-year-old David Hilder appeared at a police station claiming he thinks he had killed someone. After all, David Hilder had been in a rocky, violent friendship with David Guy. This case was solved in an unexpected way with the aid of a few small cat hairs found on the shower curtain that contained Guy's torso.
