26-year-old Emory Futo Jr., his father’s namesake, had a childhood that was anything but normal, but he was now a grown man determined to change for the better. To those on the outside, the Futos were settling into a picture-perfect life—a new stucco home on a quiet cul-de-sac in sunny California, a far cry from his upbringing in St. Louis, Missouri. Neighbors later told police the couple was quiet, well-liked, and unremarkable. And in 1990, Joshua arrived—their firstborn. From the outside, it was the picture of the American dream but every family has secrets. And the Futo family had many.
