When 19-year-old Sandy Dykman disappeared, investigators followed the trail to an abandoned Montana ranch. What they found there raised disturbing new questions.
Inside the property were several suspicious discoveries, including a nailed-shut closet, a bloody whip, women's underwear, and a burn pile containing human remains. Investigators soon realized the remains could not all belong to Sandy alone, because some appeared to be from a child.
The discovery transformed the investigation and raised the possibility that there may have been additional victims connected to the property.
