    Utah Dad Charged with Torture after Hike from Hell | Micah Smith Full Story

    A father sets out for what should have been a simple family hike—three kids, a familiar canyon, a day in the mountains.

Text messages, photos, and heartbreaking statements from the children now paint a picture far more disturbing than a tragic accident. Was this adventure gone wrong… or reckless endangerment that crossed into something darker?
