Episode One: The Disappearance

In November 1978, four young employees disappeared while closing up the Burger Chef in Speedway, Indiana. Jayne Friedt, 20, Mark Flemmonds, 16, Ruth Shelton, 17, and Danny Davis, 16, were working the closing shift when they were all abducted. Initially written off as young folks ditching work quickly turns into one of the most horrifying cases in Indiana history. In part one of our two-part series, we walk through the last night they were seen alive and the chilling discovery that something had gone terribly wrong.
