Woman's body found buried beneath concrete slab of her home's driveway 45 years after she went missing, husband charged
The eerie moment that a man who was charged with the murder of his wife that he committed almost five decades ago became emotional on camera as he pointed out the spot where he buried her body. The shocking footage shows 70-year-old Geoffrey Adams pointing to a specific spot in the driveway of the home where he and his deceased wife, Colleen Adams, stayed in before she vanished on December 19, 1973. The man, who is from South Australia, had been arrested in his home in Wallaroo on September 19. He was taken by the police back to the property to identify the spot where he had chosen to hide her body then.

With detectives accompanying him to the site, Adams walked into the yard of his former home. Nine News reported that he then proceeded to point at a particular slab of concrete before he broke down in tears. One of the detectives then spraypainted the shape of a large rectangle on the concrete in what is presumably directly above where Colleen is buried. Adams can then be seen looking back at the yard one last time before officers took him to the Kadina Police Station and was charged with the murder of his wife.
