In December of 2006, Steven Haataja was reported missing from his work, which was a local state college in Nebraska. He seemed to have disappeared with almost no signs of foul play. However, roughly 3 months later, his body would be found. The scene was gruesome and it didn't take long for this to become a closed case. Although Steven's family has accepted the outcome, many locals believe there was more to this story since there truly are more questions than answers.
