The Murder of Blake and Mary Jo Hadley

The Hadleys lived in Port St. Lucie, Florida, a town that was not built with teenagers in mind. There was only one movie theater but seven funeral homes, and the mall was pretty far away. There wasn't much to do, but on Saturday, July 16, 2011, the teenagers of Port St. Lucie had big plans - Tyler Hadley was throwing a party. No one could believe that Tyler's parents would let him throw a party - he'd been in a lot of trouble recently, and they were strict. But Tyler insisted - the party was on.
