The Harrelson family is seemingly perfect. The father in the family, Harold, is a well respected surgeon, he has a loving and caring wife, three beautiful children. Their life, to everyone on the outside, is picture-perfect. However, all of this would change on the night of December 6, 1959 at 4:30 in the morning. Harold would bludgeon his wife to death, attempt to kill his eldest daughter, and then commit suicide. The perpetrator is clear, the motive, not so much.
