I mean, you look at Facebook and social media now.

Conspiracy theories start getting thrown out there and all of a sudden you have this huge,

convoluted story when, in reality, the truth is pretty simple.

When a serious crime is committed in a small town, a handful of detectives are charged

with solving the case.

I'm Yardley and I'm fascinated by these stories.

So I invited my friends, detectives Dan and Dave, to help me gather the best true crime

cases from around the country and have the men and women who investigated them tell us how

it happened.

I'm Dan and I'm Dave, Red Denicle Twins and we're detectives in small town, USA.

Dave investigates sex crimes and child abuse.

Dan investigates violent crimes and together we've worked on hundreds of cases including

assaults, robberies, murders, burglaries, sex abuse and child abuse.

Names, places and certain details including relationships have been altered to protect

the privacy of the victims and their families.

Though we realize that some of our listeners may be familiar with these cases, we hope you'll

join us in continuing to protect the true identities of those involved out of respect

for what they've been through.

Thank you.

Today, you're going to hear about a tragic case that happened in a very small town and how

that event tests the bonds of this tight knit community to its limit.

The story is about a high school girl we call Kelly who goes out with trusted friends
