Show Notes
On the night of March 23, 1997 a 911 call came in from a 16 year old boy who stated that he had come home that night to find his father murdered in the living room. He was unsure if the other members of his family were alive because he had left the home in fear. When police responded they found four members of the Hunt and Duke family brutally murdered.
