Episode 81 - The Hendricks Family

 In November 1983, in the town of Bloomington, Illinois, 30-year-old Susan Hendricks and her three children — 9-year-old Rebekah, 7-year-old Grace, and 5-year-old Benjamin — were found brutally murdered in their family home. Their husband and father, David Hendricks, was away on a business trip at the time. But when calls home went unanswered, he rushed back — only to find his entire family gone. Very quickly, suspicion turned toward him. The successful businessman, the devout family man — now the prime suspect. In 1984, David Hendricks was convicted of killing his wife and children. But seven years later  his conviction was overturned. He walked free in 1991 — and has never been charged again. The murder of The Hendricks Family remains officially unsolved but was it – after all – their husband and father who killed his whole family and who got away with murder? This is the story of the Hendricks Family. Information and support ·      Samaritans UK Contact Us | Samaritans ·      Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse (AAFDA) Home - AAFDA·      Women’s Aid Home - Women's Aid·      National Domestic Abuse Helpline UK 0808 2000 247·      Mental health support USA Mental Health America | Homepage | Mental Health America·      Domestic abuse helpline USA 1.800.799.SAFE Domestic Violence Support | National Domestic Violence Hotline  References Reasonable Doubt: A Shocking Story of Lust and Murder in the American Heartland: Amazon.co.uk: Vogel, Steve: 9781543928679: Books MURDERED: The Hendricks Family | Crime Junkie Podcast People v.
