Back in '87 a man was thought to have murdered his entire family. However, that didn't last too long as his body was found roughly a day later. That man was Keith Dardeen, and he was originally thought to have been the perpetrator of a truly heinous crime. Unfortunately, his body too was found some ways away from the scene.
This left police stumped. Nothing was taken from the house, and his wife, Elaine, had not been sexually assaulted in any way. There didn't appear to be a motive, though the area of Illinois that this took place in had become a bit of a hotbed for criminal activity. The family had even planned on moving back to Keith's hometown due to the increase in crime.
The details of the murder are pretty brutal, and certainly aren't for the faint of heart, so consider this your warning.
