Bart and Krista Halderson were a seemingly happy couple living in Windsor, Wisconsin, with a beautiful home and two grown sons. But when Bart and Krista went missing over a July Fourth holiday weekend, authorities began looking for the couple, eventually finding them murdered and dismembered in various locations. As law enforcement zeroed in on a suspect, a clue on social media helped lead them to someone closer to Bart and Krista than anyone could have imagined. ABC News contributor and ESPN analyst Ryan Smith reports on the next “20/20,” FRIDAY, JUNE 26 (9:00-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC and streams next day on Disney+ and Hulu. (Rebroadcast. OAD: 5/30/2025)
