#233 The Tale of the Night That Changed Keddie Forever

August 23, 2022

On the night of April 11-12, 1981, 35 year old Sue Sharp, her 15 year old son John Sharp, and his friend 17 year old Dana Wingate were brutally murdered in Sue's rented Cabin at a resort located in Keddie, California. Sue's 12 year old daughter was also missing from the scene, though her remains would turn up just over 3 years later about 65 miles away near Feather Falls, California. Two suspects emerged. But because of a botched investigation, mishandled and overlooked evidence, and political rivalries, the case became nearly unsolvable. The case sat cold for more than 3 decades before it was assigned to investigators with the Plumas County Cold Case Unit. With advancements in technology and DNA, there may be a chance to finally give the families of the victims the answers they've been waiting for, for more than 4 decades. This is the story of the Cabin 28 - The Keddie Murders.
