Oakland County Circuit Court records show a plea/settlement is in the works for Hall. It's possible terms of the plea deal could include disclosing the location of Bass' body.

The plea hearing was scheduled for Feb. 27. I can't find a follow up report on the outcome. I hope he gave them the info they need to find Eugene's remains.
