| 0:00.0 | In the early morning hours of June 6, 1996, a 911 operator enrolled at Texas received a phone call from 26-year-old Darley Routier. |
| 0:12.9 | The hysterical mother of three reported that someone had broken into their house and attacked her and her two young sons. |
| 0:19.6 | But when the police arrived at the scene, |
| 0:21.6 | they quickly realized that many things in Darley's story |
| 0:24.2 | did not quite add up. |
| 0:27.2 | Discretion is advised. |
| 0:30.9 | This is 10-minute murder. |
| 0:46.3 | Oh, that's nuts. No. Welcome to Brief and Bingeable True Crime. |
| 0:49.9 | I'm Joe, the host, and I appreciate you joining today. |
| 0:53.0 | And if today is your first day listening to this podcast, I hope you enjoy what you hear and subscribe to 10-minute murder.

| 1:36.2 | clear about it, but you never know. You are not a Dumbledorek, probably. I also learned that |
| 1:42.0 | there is a strangulation expert that listens to this podcast, |
| 1:46.0 | which is really interesting. I have so many questions about that. Links for connecting with |
| 1:50.8 | 10-minute murder on social media are in the show notes of this episode. Okay, now to today's story. |
| 2:20.1 | The summer of 1996 in Rollit was hot, like summers in Texas tend to be. On June 6th, the temperature hit 93 degrees during the day and only dipped to 70 after the sun went down. That day, Darley, who lived with |
