It was 1981 in Naperville, IL. A woman, who lived alone, woke up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. In her groggy state, she walked out of her bedroom and saw a man she didn't know stabbed to death on her living room floor. It was 18-year-old Charles Huber and he had been stabbed 28 times... and right on top of him was her boyfriend, Bruce Lindahl, who had also been stabbed.  Naperville was not a place that had double homicides so the police were stumped. It would take investigators over 40 years before they fully understood what they saw that night; and it was much bigger than anyone realized
