A lead on a cold case turns explosive, and a threat to kill police officers in Dexter, brings the bomb squad out and puts some residents out of their homes.
Police from across Southeast Missouri joined forces with the Missouri Highway Patrol, after a Dexter man called and offered to confess to killing a Dunklin County man. That homicide took place three years ago.
Police say 42-year-old Jimmy Lee Allen's girlfriend was in jail in another county and Allen was hoping to negotiate her release.
Still investigators didn't bite, so Allen then allegedly bragged about some explosives he had, and coupled that with a threat to kill police officers.
