On the evening of Saturday, March 22nd, 1975, thirty-two year old John Harden arrived at his Claremont, FL home after a work call with his wife and young son. John went upstairs to clean up when, a short time later, he looked out the window and saw a fire burning in the back of his truck. In a rush to put out the flames, John ran down the backstairs, burst out the door and approached his truck. Moments later, a shot rang out and John collapsed to the ground.
It was later determined that the fire had been set intentionally, to lure John outside where he was killed in an ambush by a single shotgun blast. The shooter managed to evade John's wife, neighbors rushing over to help with the fire, and disappeared into the night. More than fifty years later, he has never been found.
For decades, John's story languished in cold case files. The narrative has been thin, to say the least, and few major details from John's murder have ever been made public... until now. Thanks so the dedication and support of John's family, Trace Evidence has come into possession of police files which shine a new light on this old story and point, perhaps, in an entirely different direction.
