Keith and Elaine Dardeen were raising their three year old son Peter and expecting another baby within weeks when something unimaginable happened inside their home. Police discovered Elaine, Peter, and the newborn infant beaten to death and arranged together beneath blankets in the family’s waterbed, while Keith had vanished along with his car. But when Keith’s body was found shot, mutilated, and dumped in a nearby wheat field, investigators realized they were dealing with something far more horrifying than anyone originally believed, a case that nearly forty years later still remains unsolved.
