What followed was an investigation filled with disturbing suspects, questionable police work, missing evidence, and clues that wouldn’t resurface for decades. More than 45 years later, the Keddie Cabin murders remain unsolved.But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some very strong opinions about who was responsible...You may want to sit down for this one.Got a story to tell?
