    Mormons and entrepreneurs Tony and Katherine Butterfield were the kind of people who gave a leg up to anyone who needed it. They invited jobless citizens to work for their landscaping company and homeless ones into their home. So on the morning of April 18th, 2020 no one could believe it when screams were heard coming from their house, and the pair were discovered fatally wounded while their three small children wondered what just happened. Detectives assumed a disgruntled ex-employee came for revenge even in the quiet town of West Jordan. But the motive for this slaughter was far more insidious.
