On February 18, 2018, 73-year-old Jimmy Neal Siddens, his 72-year-old wife Helen, and their 41-year-old son Jimmy Neal Siddens II were shot to death outside their home on Ray Pardue Road in Scottsville, Kentucky. The family’s bodies were found the following day. Jimmy Neal Siddens was a retired truck driver, farmer, and church deacon.

Investigators identified 28-year-old Edward Dilon Siddens, the couple’s grandson who had been adopted by them and lived on the same property in a separate building, as the suspect. Reports say he had a history of domestic trouble with the family, including a 2017 protective order taken out by his grandmother and a prior conviction for holding a gun to his grandfather’s head. He allegedly fled the state in his grandfather’s pickup but was captured in Sedgwick County, Colorado, after a vehicle chase and returned to Kentucky.

Court hearing testimony described Edward luring his uncle to the home and shooting him multiple times, then shooting his grandmother in the walkway and killing his grandfather in a vehicle. He later pleaded guilty to three counts of murder and other charges and received life in prison without the possibility of parole. Did anyone in the Scottsville area know the Siddens family or notice anything unusual around February 18, 2018?
