On 17 February 1970 police received an emergency phone call coming from Jeffrey Macdonald in Army Base Fort Bragg. He said he had been injured and his wife and two children were injured by a group of intruders. What police found was Jeffrey’s wife Colette and his two daughters Kimberley and Kristen dead with multiple stab wounds and blunt force injuries. Jeffrey was eventually convicted of the murder of his wife and two children – but maintains his innocence to this day.
This is the story of Colette MacDonald and her children Kimberley and Kristen.
