The tragic deaths of Kadie, River and Aadon Major

In January 2008, 26 year old Kadie Major and her 10 month old daughter, River Lynn, were found dead near train tracks off Oakley Road in Berkeley County, South Carolina. Authorities quickly ruled it a murder-suicide. Investigators claimed Kadie had been struggling with postpartum depression, that she had killed her daughter before stepping in front of a train, and within days, that explanation became official... before toxicology results were returned, before the autopsy report was finalised, and before key questions had been fully explored. But from the very beginning, Kadie’s family didn’t believe it. In the hours before she disappeared, Kadie had been making plans, sharing the news she was expecting a baby boy, and speaking with loved ones. That same night, her husband reported that she had run from the house in fear, convinced someone was coming to kill her... but discouraged the family from calling police. By the next morning, the search ended in tragedy. As the investigation unfolded, details began to surface that didn’t sit right. Her truck was found abandoned but completely undamaged, her wedding rings had been removed and placed in her pocket, there was a handwritten note filled with fragmented religious and apocalyptic phrases, and a timeline that raised more questions than answers. Years later, with a PI on the case and following national attention from CBS’s 48 Hours, the case was reopened. Investigators publicly stated they no longer believed Kadie’s death was a suicide... and named her husband as the sole suspect. So what really happened to Kadie Major and River that night? And how did a case closed in just days… unravel into something far more complicated?
