Part 2 of the Burger Chef murders.
The morning after their disappearance, the bodies of Jayne, Mark, Ruth, and Danny were found in a remote wooded area. Four people were murdered in three different ways, raising more questions than answers. Who would abduct four young people from their workplace and why? In part two of our series on the Burger Chef murders, we trace the discovery of the bodies, the shaken community, the troubled investigation, and the decades of unanswered questions that still haunt Speedway, Indiana.
