In August 2019, the Langford family ventured into Colorado’s Black Canyon for a weekend getaway. Mark, Lisa, and their young son Andrew carried hopes of nature’s peace but never returned. Their tent was found overturned near a dangerous cliff edge, and under a bloodied tarp were their bound bodies, victims of brutal murder.
Their packed car, just yards away, contained many unused items, adding confusion to the case. Authorities ruled the cause of death as blunt force trauma, and blood samples at the scene linked to an unknown individual. The search focused on Greg Hansen, a local guide last seen near the site and involved in a conflict, but he disappeared shortly after, along with a man bearing a distinctive tattoo.
Despite an intense FBI investigation and recovered evidence connecting the blood and bindings, the case remains unresolved. The Langford tragedy highlights how quickly a family trip can turn into an unspeakable nightmare.
