On Christmas Eve 1985, in Chester, Nebraska the body of a child was found abandoned in a field, wearing only blue sleeper pajamas. The community of Chester was overwhelmed with concern for the child, and he was nicknamed “Little Boy Blue”. It took a couple of years, and only after a story was published in “Reader’s Digest” in 1987, that Little Boy Blue’s true identity became known. He belonged to an Amish family. A full investigation into the boy's father, Eli Stutzman, would reveal the first known Amish serial killer.
