The mattress on which Nancy Billiter was murdered. It was recovered from the garage rafters in the Giles’s home.

A search of the “murder” house turned up a carton of bullets for the gun Collier carried.

The holster Collier used to carry his gun in.

Battery acid from this bottle was injected into Nancy Billiter’s body.

During a search, police recovered other paraphernalia from Carol Giles’s car, including the can of gasoline used to burn the body.

Carol Giles rode around with Billiter’s body in the trunk of her car the day after the murder, before dumping it.

The body of Jessie Giles was exhumed to check for heroin residue that would prove his wife had murdered him. Note the decomposition of the skin on his hands.
