Matt Labash's opus on the death of Detroit spent a lot of time with Detroit News reporter Charlie LeDuff. Today LeDuff has another Detroit story almost too terrible to believe: A body found encased in ice in an abandoned warehouse.

The body had been there for at least a month. Plenty of people saw it, but never bothered to call the police. You have to read the rest to believe it.
