Summary

In the early morning of May 14th, 1991 off the Interstate 10 access road in Vidor, Texas, a newspaper carrier discovered what appeared to be the scene of a tragic accident. When police arrived on the scene, however, everything was not what it looked like upon a first glimpse. It was too clean for an auto accident; something wasn’t right...and everything began pointing to the deceased woman’s husband, including his own actions and words. Kathy Page’s murder, though, remains unsolved to this day.

Special thanks to our good pal Erica at Southern Fried True Crime for her help with research and information. Her episode on Kathy’s murder is excellent and, like every single other episode she’s done, we highly recommend it. You can find Southern Fried True Crime at:
