The Good Hart Murders: A Family, a Cottage and a Killer Who Walked Away
Season 7
Episode 14
Published 3 months ago
Description
In June 1968, Richard and Shirley Robison took their four children to the family’s secluded summer cottage near Good Hart, Michigan. Twenty-seven days later, a caretaker entered the locked home and found all six members of the family dead.
Investigators built a strong circumstantial case against Richard’s employee, Joseph Scolaro, pointing to missing business funds, an unexplained gap in his movements and links to weapons connected to the crime.
But prosecutors never brought the case to trial, and Scolaro died before a jury could hear the evidence.
In this episode of End of the Road in Michigan, we examine the crime scene, the delayed discovery, the prime suspect and the question that still divides investigators and true-crime researchers: Was the Good Hart case solved in everything but a courtroom?
