Unaware of the grisly fate that had befallen Lisa Spence, police investigating her disappearance had her cellphone number assigned to a new phone and sent a text message to their main suspect."Just wait til I got better," the message read.
It worked, police say: Minutes after they sent the message, Paul Edwards, 44, got into his mother's car and drove to several South Florida locations, one of which would later lead police to Spence's decapitated body.
Edwards was arrested Wednesday on one count of first-degree murder. On Thursday he was ordered held without bail.
Police accuse him of stabbing Spence, his girlfriend, more than 33 times, cutting off her head and stuffing her body into a barrel, which was found two months later in northern Miami-Dade County.
The head remains missing.
