Summary
In the fall of 1996, a 25-year-old school teacher was found murdered in the bathtub of her Arlington, Texas apartment. Three months later, a 22-year-old woman was found murdered in the bathtub of her Arlington, Texas apartment - located in the very same complex. The crime scenes looked virtually identical, but it would take police four years to trace these two murders back to the killer who committed them.
