In this episode of Crime with a K, we dive into the disturbing case of Shirley and Russell Dermond, a retired couple whose idyllic life in the peaceful Lake Oconee community was shattered in May 2014. Their seemingly serene world turned into a nightmare when their bodies were discovered under horrifying circumstances. What began as a routine check on a missing couple soon turned into a nightmarish discovery. The Dermonds were found murdered in the most gruesome of circumstances. With the crime scene offering few clues and a community left in fear, investigators faced a chilling puzzle with no clear answers.
