The word ice is dated gangster slang for killing someone.

In Raleigh, North Carolina, a middle-aged man was reported missing. After looking here, there, and everywhere for over a month, police found his mortal remains in his girlfriend's freezer. The electricity in the house had been cut off, making the search a little less difficult.

I always assumed, but never verified, that this came from morgues storing bodies on/near ice in the days before modern refrigeration methods became available and economical.
