Summary

On February 17th, 1970, 26-year-old Jeffrey MacDonald called 911, saying that there'd been a stabbing at his home and people were dying. MacDonald, a Green Beret, lived on the Army base in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Military police responded quickly to the MacDonald house to find a horrific scene: 26-year-old Colette and the MacDonald's two daughters, five-year-old Kimberley and two-year-old Kristen had been stabbed and bludgeoned to death. MacDonald, however, was still alive with only minor injuries. His story quickly began to unravel to investigators as he continued to blame the murders on a group of intruders, whom he described as "drug-crazed hippies". Was MacDonald telling the truth or had he murdered his family in a fit of rage, then staged it to look like a copycat Manson murder?
