The Keddie Cabin Murders: A Night That Won't Stay Buried

On the night of April 11th, 1981, inside a small rented cabin in the Sierra Nevada, a mother, her son, and his friend were murdered. Three children slept through it in the next room — and a fourth child, 12-year-old Tina Sharp, was gone. Her remains were found three years later, and the case has never been solved. This is the Keddie Cabin Murders — the case that went cold for 40 years: the missed evidence, the suspects who were never charged, and what the 2016 reopening and Josh Hancock's documentary uncovered.
