On Labor Day weekend, 1980, Boy Scout Troop #101 scheduled a weekend camping trip on the Schmidt farm located outside the City of Monroe, Wisconsin. As one of the scouts was digging a fire pit on the edge of the grove, he unearthed skeletal remains. Everyone got excited speculating what those bones could be. The Scout leader promptly called the police to report the finding. Upon inspection, Police Chief Brandon Johns called pathologist Dr. Ken to examine the bones. When he arrived at the scene, he surmised that the bones were human and incredibly old and had them removed to the morgue for further analysis. Was this a crime scene or not? Would the police be willing to take on a cold case? Chief Johns and Detective Sam Gates contacted the Schmidt family who were in shock after the discovery and revealed a family secret that had haunted them since the 1920s. Yes, they wanted an investigation to proceed to bring closure to the mystery. Given all the difficulties associated with solving a cold case, the police soldiered on in hopes of identifying the bones and the killer so the family could find peace. After interviewing all the people who had any knowledge of the case, with all its twists, turns, and surprises, would they eventually learn the truth? Had a crime been committed? Too many theories and insufficient facts stymied their efforts. Was this case a fool's errand?
