An Unsolved Mystery: The Gruesome Murder of the Dardeen Family Oct 18, 2023

Show notes

What the Dardeens lacked in money, they made up for with love. Russell “Keith” Dardeen lived with his 3-year-old son, Peter, and his pregnant wife, Ruby Elaine, in a small trailer by the train tracks. But with the baby due in a couple of months, it was time they moved on to something bigger.
But there was another reason Keith wanted to move. He was afraid.
Ina wasn’t the sleepy little haven it used to be. The county had seen 15 murders over the last two years. It wasn’t the kind of place Keith wanted to raise his family anymore.
He had no idea that his worst nightmare was about to become a horrid reality. And this nightmarish murder is yet to be solved.
