In July of 1940, the body of a strangled woman was discovered floating in Crescent Lake in Olympic National Park, Washington.  The cold water preserved the body, but the flesh had turned into a soap-like substance.  It took a while, but a dentist was finally able to identify the woman as Hallie Latham Illingworth.  She had been missing since shortly before Christmas in 1937 and investigators arrested her husband, Monty Illingworth.
