In this episode, we’re diving into one of California’s most disturbing and complicated cold cases: the Keddie Cabin 28 murders. In April 1981, 36-year-old Sue Sharp and three teenagers—her son John, his friend Dana, and her 12-year-old daughter Tina—were attacked inside a small rental cabin in the remote mountain town of Keddie. Only three young boys in the home survived. What followed was a series of investigative missteps that still shocks people today: a contaminated crime scene, a missing child who wasn’t noticed for hours, ignored confessions, mishandled evidence, and key suspects who slipped out of town just days later.
If you’re looking for a case that’s as frustrating as it is haunting, the Keddie murders remain one of the most chilling examples of a community failed by the system and of investigators still fighting to set the record straight.
