| 0:52.7 | Back in September, investigators identified Brasher's as the man who killed four teenage girls at a yogurt shop in Austin, Texas in December of 1991. That building was set on fire, too. Two months prior, police say they got a new tip in the Rutledge case that made them review evidence specifically comparing spent shell casings from Austin and Lexington. It showed the same firearm was used in both murders. DNA linked both of the crimes. Brasher's is believed to have killed eight people across multiple states, but the crimes weren't tied to him until around 2018. He died by suicide in 1999.
