Short filmTranscript
00:00On November 17th, 1978, four employees of the Burger Chef restaurant in Speedway, Indiana
00:09were abducted.
00:15The bodies of Jane Seyfried, Mark Flemmons, Daniel R. Davis, and Ruthie Shelton have been
00:20discovered late this afternoon.
00:24You're supposed to find the bad guys.
00:27That's the way the movie's supposed to end.
00:37The Speedway police, they fumbled and bumbled that case all the way to hell.
00:42Somewhere, somebody knows what happened.
00:45Hey, Mama, I was just wondering if I could stay back to help close.
00:53Ruth was 30 days away from being 18.
00:57Once Mark get off work, I'm gonna meet him.
01:01Black kids don't walk by themself in Speedway at night.
01:05I wonder if something was going down that Jane was worried about.
01:09Maybe she was afraid of something.
01:13My paranoia started with the murders.
01:16It put a lot of fear in everybody.
01:18How many of you went to the Burger Chef?
01:22Two in a car, two in a blue van.
01:25I will never forget that van.
01:27When the shots rang out, Jane and Mark bolt.
01:30A six-day bombing spree rocked the town of Speedway.
01:33If it's drug-related, it's Brett Kimberlin.
01:36I think he was evil.
01:37A size six foot, had a beard.
01:39A single-file line of kids.
01:42He didn't look like Jeffrey.
01:43We have pertinent information.
01:44There was a crew of five guys robbing all the Burger Chefs.
01:49It's not fair.
01:51It's time that the families have some measure of resolution and closure.
01:58If you did talk, then something bad would happen to you.
02:03It's been a true secret that I've held for 40 years.
