Gone Cold - Texas True Crime

Part 1 of 2. On a night in late April of 1989, 20-year-old Elizabeth Campbell and her boyfriend had a disagreement about studying. It turned into a full-blown argument, and Elizabeth stormed off on foot from his Killeen home, heading back to her home in Lampasas, some 28 miles away. A short time later, she called her boyfriend from a 7-11 store in Copperas Cove, a town in between Lampasas and Killeen, and the two argued again. After hanging up, she called home, but no one answered. Elizabeth was never seen again. If you have any information about the disappearance of Elizabeth Ann Campbell, please call the Copperas Cove Crime Stoppers at (254) 547-1111 or Bell County Crime Stoppers at (254) 526-8477.

You know those messages that you get all the time, the ones that pop up out of nowhere? They could be real, but something about them seems fishy. You likely dismiss these texts and emails as mere annoyances, thinking you’ve stopped some random stranger from ripping you off. But the shocking truth is, the person behind that message might be trapped inside a “scam factory” on the other side of the world and forced to scam others against their will. From Wondery, comes a new series about the brutal reality behind these operations, where one family discovers a horrifying truth: the only way out is to scam their way out.   Listen to Scam Factory: http://link.pscrb.fm/dd070/launchfeeddropgonegold-9da25 Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/gone-cold-texas-true-crime--3203003/support.

Part 4 of 4. Beginning in 1967, a series of murders in Fort Worth that had at least a few similarities began. Their obvious similarity: they all took place in the month of February. The first four were as follows: Mildred May in 1967, Becky Martin in 1973, Carla Walker in 1974, and June Ward in 1977. The murders became known by some members of law enforcement, and certainly to the press, as the February Slayings. This episode is about the fifth in this series, the 1983 murder of Christy Tower...and another that was never mentioned alongside the others, the 1986 murder of Hillside Jane Doe. If you have any information about the 1979 murder of Susan Boatman Kilgore, the 1983 murder of Christy Jean Tower, or the 1986 slaying of Hillside Jane Doe, please contact the Fort Police Department Cold Case Unit at 817 392 4307.

Ten years after the first so-called February Slaying took place, that of Mildred May, another young woman was taken. The fourth victim in this series of crimes, 26-year-old June Ward, presumably had car trouble. It isn’t known if someone posing as a “Good Samaritan” came along, or if June set out on foot looking for help and met with foul play. It is known that her murder was, perhaps, the most brutal out of the February Slayings. June left behind a family who loved her, including an 8-year-old son, and friends who adored her. Over the years, and although the Fort Worth Police Department kept quiet about a majority of the goings-on in June Ward’s case, new possibilities have arisen, from stranger to someone close to her. If you have any information about the murder of June Ward, please contact Fort Worth police department cold case unit at 817-392-4307.

Six years after the February 1967 slaying of Mildred May, 21-year-old Becky Martin disappeared. All she left behind were school papers scattered across the parking lot of Tarrant County Junior College and a car that showed definitive signs of a struggle. Though the Fort Worth Police wanted to wait 72 hours before any intensive search took place, Becky’s husband David, with the help of the top lawman from the suburb where he lived, looked everywhere they could think of for the young woman. It wasn’t until 7 weeks later that Becky Martin’s body would be found in a culvert in rural Tarrant County.

With several other murders to follow, the series of Fort Worth crimes dubbed “The February Sl@yings” by newspaper reporters began in 1967 with victim Mildred May. When her husband left for Dallas on the night of February 3rd, 1967, Mildred had planned to stay in to nurse her headache. The ailment, however, must have passed, since she was seen at El Matador Club in West Fort Worth that night. After that, presumably, her car broke down and Mildred headed to a payphone on foot to get help. On February 4th, her body was found several miles away on a Trinity River levee. She’d been badly beaten, r@ped, and str@ngled. If the cope were ever close to finding Mildred May’s k!ller, they never let on to the public.

Part 9 of 9. Long after a Fort Worth Police special homicide task force was formed to investigate the murders of more than a dozen women and girls had come and gone, advancements in DNA technologies solved several area crimes. But none the task force was created to solve. Madmen such as Lucky Lamon Odom, Glen Samuel McCurley, Juan Meza Segundo, and Curtis Don Brown were identified as local killers, but are they also responsible for murders in which they weren’t convicted?   If you have any information about any of the victims discussed in this series, please call the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817) 392-4307.

Among the names on the list of cases assigned to the Fort Worth Special Homicide Task Force in the mid-1980s were Lisa Griffin and Ginger Hayden, two young women who, at their core, weren’t incredibly different from one another. Their deaths – though at the hands of violence – were very different, however, in almost every way imaginable. Their cases, too, would ultimately prove to be dissimilar. Lisa’s case was solved in a relatively short period of time, within several months, while Ginger’s took decades. In both cases, the killer was someone who was acquainted with the victims, though to much different degrees. That wasn’t the case in Terri McAdams’s murder in neighboring Arlington, a case the Fort Worth task force was keeping an eye on. Finally solved nearly 40 years after the tragedy, the madman who killed Terri, unlike in the cases of Lisa Griffin and Ginger Hayden, could easily be theorized as responsible for other area murders before her death.   You can support Gone Cold – Texas True Crime and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast Find us at https://www.gonecold.com Follow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

If you like highly detailed and thoroughly researched podcasts, you will love DNA ID. The show has over 100 episodes available to binge on right now. One of those episodes, episode 122, covers the case of Patricia Stichler.  New Years’ Day 1985 should have rung in an exciting new year for Patti Stichler and her three young daughters.  Instead, in the middle of the night on January 1-2, someone slashed and stabbed Patti to death in her bedroom.  Her three girls, ages 11, 9 and 6, were in their bedrooms just feet away.  The oldest, Andrea, was the one to find her mom, and also found the most significant clue the police had – the open window in the blood-stained bathroom, and the gaping curtains that had been cut away from it. A knife sheath was found right outside, but the killer eluded police for decades.  Sylvania, OH investigators focused on people Patti knew, but could not link anyone in her inner circle to the crime. Decades later, a very complex forensic genealogy analysis that required interpreting one-sided DNA matches, piercing adoption records, and a lot of luck, finally provided a name – and it was not who anyone suspected.

Before the murders of Catherine Davis, Cindy Heller, Angela Ewert, and Sarah Kashka, all of whose cases were connected in some way to Fort Worth’s west and southwest sides, a series of murders took place that haunted the victims’ families and perhaps only inconvenienced the police department. Sylvia Hynes, Lorane Larkin, Margaret Maxwell, Vicky Chisolm, Jacquelyn Jones, Karen Strong, Angela Jones, and Sandra Bush, among others, were all slain within a three-year period beginning in the summer of 1980. Unlike the mid-1980s cases, however, these early-80s murders saw virtually no help from the press and although some of the crimes shared similarities, a task force was never formed to help solve them. If you have any information about the cases discussed this episode – Sandra Bush, Sylvia Hynes, Lorane Larkin, Margaret Maxwell, Vicky Chisolm, Jacquelyn Jones, Karen Strong, or Angela Jones – please contact the Fort Worth Cold Case Unit at 817-392-4307 or 817-392-4308.

In November of 1984, a brutal and shocking murder rocked the otherwise crime-free and exclusive Colleyville subdivision Tara Plantation. Judy Herron was a 37-year-old stay at home parent and was attacked and slain not long after her husband Lee left for work. Though Colleyville authorities enlisted the help of multiple outside jurisdictions, Judy’s killer slipped away without so much as a trace. Less than two months later, two similar, violent crimes perpetrated by the same man had Colleyville Detectives almost certain they’d found the man who murdered Judy Herron. Evidence to prove it, however, was elusive. If you have any information about the Judy Herron murder case, please contact Colleyville PD at (817) 503-1202.

After the disappearances of Catherine Davis, Cindy Heller, and Angela Ewert, and the murder of Sarah Kashka, special homicide task force was created to investigate those crimes specifically. However, they were far from the only unsolved cases that had police stumped. Just days before Cindy Heller went missing, Twenty-nine-year-old middle school teacher Marilyn Hartman was brutally murdered in her home in what, on the surface, seemed like a burglary gone wrong. Not six weeks later, thirty-two-year-old middle school teacher Kathryn Jackson was killed in her apartment in what can only be described as a depraved and savage act of violence. In between those two crimes, a Colleyville woman named Judy Herron was also killed in her home. Similarities between these crimes had Fort Worth police detectives scrambling to make sense of them. Are they related? If you have any information about the murders of Marilyn Hartman or Kathryn Jackson, please call the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817) 392-4307.

In early December 1984, not long after the disappearances of 23-year-olds Catherine Davis and Cindy Heller, 21-year-old Angela Ewert spent an evening getting sized for an engagement ring. After leaving her fiance’s house to head to her home in west Arlington, Angela stopped for gas at a southwest Fort Worth 7-Eleven convenience store. She was never seen alive again. The following day, her father found her maroon, 1984 Mercury Topaz abandoned on the 300 block of Southeast Interstate Loop 820. A tire had been changed, but there were no obvious signs of violence. After several large-scale searches over the next couple of years, the Ewert Family, and police, continually came up empty handed. Nearly nine years later, the answer to one question was finally answered: where was she?

A few days before Christmas in 1984, 26-year-old David Dale Larson and 21-year-old Regina Suzanne Grover went out for a dinner date at The Keg Restaurant and Bar off Camp Bowie in Fort Worth, Texas. Service industry workers themselves, they knew folks at The Keg, and those folks saw Regina and David leave around 11 PM. It was the last time they were seen alive. The following afternoon, David Larson’s roommate discovered his nude and badly bludgeoned body in their apartment just southwest of downtown Fort Worth. Minutes later, a discovery was made in northwest Fort Worth. On the bank of a river under a bridge, covered with illegally dumped furniture, was the body of Regina Grover. She’d been strangled to death. Police lumped Regina’s murder in with several others that would eventually become known to locals as “The 80s Murders,” and David’s murder, which separated the case from the others in a major way, was often left out. Detectives never got a break on Regina and David’s case, but decades later, when a 1974 murder was solved, similarities never before noticed became hard to ignore. If you have any information about the murders of David Dale Larson and Regina Suzanne Grover, please contact the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817)392-4307, or you can provide information by emailing [email protected].

In August of 1983, twenty-seven-year-old Mary Till left her Arlington apartment to head to work in Dallas. She never made it. For month, Mary’s parents agonized over their daughter’s disappearance. In early January of 1984 came an unfortunate end to their uncertainty when Mary’s skeletonized remains were found in a field of tall grass just outside a large, heavily-wooded area. The case appears to have gone cold at the get-go. But after a task force was formed to investigate the disappearances and murders of several young women in Fort Worth, Mary Till’s case quickly came to the attention of detectives there. Are the connections and similarities only coincidence or is one person responsible for a majority of these murders?

On June 10th, 1983, the decomposing body of a well-dressed man was found in a desolate canyon near Los Angeles. John Doe #94 would soon be identified as missing variety show producer Roy Radin. He'd last been seen after meeting with a mysterious woman in a gold dress. Her name was Lanie Jacobs. Jacobs and Radin were obsessed with becoming Hollywood movie producers. And when their paths collided, it led them to a tantalizing film deal promising fame and fortune. But then, a twisted script unfolded, plunging them into a million-dollar cocaine and cash heist, a tangled web of lies, and ultimately – murder. The trail led investigators right to Hollywood's doorstep, linking former golden boy producer Robert Evans to the case and dredging up Radin's own troubled past. But the case turned ice cold. It would take more than five years of dogged pursuit by the L.A. Sheriff’s Department detectives, a secret undercover witness, and another murder almost 3,000 miles from Hollywood – to unlock the truth. This is the story of a doomed Hollywood partnership, a grisly murder and the search that stretched across the country for a killer – or killers. From Wondery, and the team behind the hit series Hollywood & Crime: The Dating Game Killer, The Wonderland Murders, Death of Starlet, and the Execution of Bonny Lee Bakley comes a six part series that dives into the dark side of Hollywood through a shocking murder – fueled by ruthless ambition and desperate dreams.

Less than a month after the disappearance of Catherine Davis, another 23-year-old woman vanished without a trace. In late October 1984, Cindy Heller stopped to help a stranded motorist. As genuinely friendly and caring as a person can get, she lived up to the term “Good Samaritan” and offered to deliver a note to the motorist’s friends after spending two hours waiting with her. The note was delivered, but Cindy disappeared. More than two months later, her decomposed body was found on the campus of Texas Christian University. If you have any information about the murder of Cindy Heller, please call the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817) 392-4307.

Catherine Davis came to Texas in 1979 from Oxford, Mississippi. Chasing a career in modeling and fashion, she first landed in Dallas but followed a boy to Fort Worth in 1982. In late September 1984, the twenty-three-year-old left her apartment with someone and forty-five minutes later, it was engulfed in flames. Catherine wasn’t inside. But she’d never be seen alive again, nonetheless. By December, her disappearance became part of a multi-case investigation by the FWPD that, at first, involved two other missing women. When Catherine’s remains were finally recovered, it was an obvious homicide. The investigation would continue to add victims and is known today colloquially as “the ‘80s Murders.” If you have any information about the murder of Catherine Lee Davis, please call the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817) 392-4307.

On October 25th, 2004, four of the most brutal murders in the history of Lubbock, Texas took place; the murders of Ka'Diece, Ka'Sheim, and Mahogany Jasmine Allen and their mother, Tammy Cooper, shook even the most seasoned homicide detectives in the Lubbock Police Department to their cores. Even though the grisly scene and witnesses provided investigators with what is described as "plenty of evidence," they were unable to connect that evidence with any individual. The murders changed the course of family and loved ones' lives forever.

On February 2nd, 1980, 19-year-old Kristy Lynn Booth and a friend were dropped off at a Midland, Texas nightclub. Kristy took off her coat and shoes and danced all night, the last time with a man no one seems to have known. When a friend who’d borrowed Kristy’s car returned to the club to pick her up, she was nowhere to be found. Five days later, her family reported her missing. It took several more days for Kristy’s name, face, and description to make the newspapers and television news. Police searches, too, didn’t happen for days. What happened to Kristy Booth is more than one of Midland mysteries, it’s also a question that has tormented a family for 44 years. If you have any information about the disappearance of Kristy Lynn Booth, please contact Midland Crime Stoppers at (432)694-8477, where you can remain anonymous and are eligible for a reward, or call the Texas Rangers at (432)498-2120.

August 23, 1987. Saline County Arkansas. 16-year old Don Henry and 17-year old Kevin Ives head into the woods to do some late-night hunting, but never return. Hours later, the two boys are seen lying on some railroad tracks before they are run over by a cargo train and the medical examiner concludes they had fallen asleep after smoking marijuana and their deaths were accidental. However, Don and Kevin’s families push for a new investigation, which uncovers evidence that they were violently attacked before their bodies were placed on the tracks. Throughout the years, a number of conspiracy theories emerge to suggest the boys were murdered as part of a cover-up involving drug trafficking, but no one is ever charged with the crime. “The Trail Went Cold” released a two-part episode about this convoluted story for their five-year anniversary show.   This is a preview of The Trail Went Cold’s coverage of the case and you can find the rest of the story by subscribing to The Trail Went Cold wherever you listen to podcasts or by visiting their website at https://www.trailwentcold.com/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/gone-cold-texas-true-crime--3203003/support.

After the brutal rape and murder of 18-year-old Teresa Branch, her family was left with the fallout – something that became increasingly difficult to live with. Outside the family, too, there were individuals whose life Teresa’s killer affected. It didn’t help that the investigation was at a crawl, with no actual evidence to work with, at least during the pre-DNA era in modern law enforcement investigations. What the police did have was a witness, one who provided vital information. Still, the case went cold. But when DNA testing did enter the investigation, things heated back up. If you have any information about the 1986 murder of Teresa Laune Branch, please contact the Arlington Police homicide unit at 817-459-5772 or if you wish to remain anonymous and possibly receive a reward up to $1,250 please call Tarrant County Crime Stoppers at 817-469-8477.

That’s when a Branch Family friend alerted them to police activity nearby. Early, teenagers had found a body in the parking lot of a neighborhood Baptist Church.

In late 1993, after Roney Dean Harper’s confession to the murder of Lou Goettsch, discoveries of human bones seemed to be commonplace in the Big County, an area of Texas of which Abilene is the heart. With every set of remains unearthed, detectives with the Abilene Police Department, an agency that had no jurisdiction over any of the discoveries, sat tight and waited for the identification of one of their missing people. At the top of that list was Lou Goettsch, since Harper’s admission had heated the case back up. Neither the Big Country bones nor Roney Dean Harper gave the answers the cops were looking for. If you have any information about the disappearance of Lou Allen Goettsch, please contact Abilene Crime Stoppers at 800-868-8477.

On March 31st, 1981, twenty-one-year-old Lou Allen Goettsch had it made. A couple days earlier, he received a decent sized settlement check for a work injury he’d sustained earlier in the year, opened up a checking account, and put a deposit and first month’s rent on a new apartment. Then, he vanished into thin air. Since the disappearance wasn’t reported for two months, Abilene, Texas Police had a hard time figuring out where to start searching for the young man. In fact, there were absolutely no clues that cut them a break in that department. That year, two other young adults disappeared from Abilene, further complicating and taking resources away from one another. Twelve years after he disappeared, a man confessed to Lou’s murder.

Part 2 of 2. In late September 1983, 17-year-old Bambi Dick and friends attended a heavy metal concert at Davenport, Iowa’s Col Ballroom. Stories about what happened after, perhaps, are conflicting, but whatever the case, Bambi vanished. For more than a quarter century, her family looked for her. At some point, her parents expected her to come waltzing through the front door with a couple kids and a husband. But they also knew she had no reason to run away and had never tried to run away before. Years after the disappearance, Bambi’s brother began looking on the internet and realized he needed to post his sister’s information to missing persons websites. He did just that in 2009, and within days, an internet sleuth made a connection between Bambi’s Iowa disappearance and a Jane Doe in Amarillo, Texas. If you have any information about the murder of Bambi Lynn Dick, please call the Amarillo / Potter / Randall Special Crimes Unit at 806-378-4268.

Part 1 of 2. In early October 1983, a motorcyclist discovered the partially clothed body of a woman in a culvert off US Highway 287, about 17 miles north of Amarillo, Texas. The local Special Crimes Unit immediately began their investigation, fully aware that time was of the essence. Between the body and her clothing, the victim had many identifying features but still, authorities fell short. They felt it meant their Jane Doe wasn’t from the Amarillo area. Though decades later they’d discover that assertion was correct, investigators never stopped searching missing persons cases from around the country. But two and a half decades later, they still couldn’t match the unidentified victim with any.

In the span of three months in 1976, three young East Austin women vanished. With seemingly no clues left behind, the Austin Police were baffled, however, it’s unclear if they were investigating the first two cases from the get-go, those of Brenda Jean Moore and Jennifer Joyce Barton. They certainly were not utilizing the media – a vital tool in any missing persons case; it took a year for Jennifer to get a highly sensationalized article about her disappearance and Brenda never once made the newspaper. Police went to the media for Debra Kay Stewart’s missing person’s case about a week after she disappeared, perhaps too late to be effective. If you have any information about the disappearances of Brenda Jean Moore, Jennifer Joyce Barton, or Debra Kay Stewart, please contact the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Missing Persons Clearinghouse at (800) 346-3243 or the Austin Police Department at (512) 974-5250.

In November of 2017, patrol officers from the small city of Corinth came across a vehicle parked in a vacant lot with the lights on. They approached the suspicious car and discovered the body of a woman, riddled with gunshot wounds. She was soon identified as Amanda Clairmont, a 21-year-old well-liked University of North Texas student. A motive for the young woman’s murder eluded investigators and so did evidence. The last time a homicide investigation was conducted in Corinth, it didn’t go much better according to many. If you know anything or saw Amanda Marie Clairmont on the night of November 18th, 2017, please call Corinth Police at 940 279 1500.

Constable Johnnie Raymond “Bill” Garsee was shot dead in front of his Moscow, Texas barn in April of 1984. Originally from San Augustine, Bill, his wife, and three children had settled down in the small town three decades before. Being a huge name on the rodeo circuit in a rodeo town like Moscow, locals warmly welcomed Bill and his family. As the years went on, he became Precinct 3 Constable and garnered the respect and friendship of everyone. So, when he was gunned down in cold-blood as a 61-year-old man in 1984, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office was left baffled. They had theories but could get none to stick. If you have any information about the murder of Johnnie Raymond “Bill” Garsee, please contact the Polk County Sheriff’s Office at (936) 327-6810.

Although he’d promised one of his daughters to do better, 49-year-old Jose Fernando Corona couldn’t help but suspect his wife, 44-year-old Maria Santos Corona, of having an affair, though no evidence of such existed. He saw a curandera and attempted to use herbs and prayer to rectify the situation he’d most likely imagined. However, Jose could not let it go. Nothing was working in his mind. So, in April of 2010, he did the unthinkable. Instead of simply walking away, Jose murdered Maria in one of the most brutal ways imaginable. There’s no doubt he’s responsible, but since he fled to Mexico, and could be anywhere in Texas, Oklahoma, or Washington state at this point, Maria’s six children have yet to see the man who killed their mother – their father – brought to justice. From CityofLewisville.com: On April 26, 2010, Jose Fernando Corona murdered his wife with a chainsaw. Investigators believe that Corona may have fled into Mexico on April 27, 2010 at Laredo, Texas. Corona has extended family members in Euless, Grapevine, Mineola, Austin, and Houston, Texas as well as in Oklahoma, Washington and Mexico. Anyone with information related to this offense is asked to call the Lewisville Police Department Tip Line at 972.219.TIPS (8477) or Denton County Crime Stoppers at 800.388.TIPS (8477).

Edgar Ray Zachary – the cab driver who drove Virginia Carpenter from the train station to the campus of Texas State College for Women in Denton – remained the prime suspect in her disappearance for nearly the entirety of the past several decades. His name popped up at detectives’ every turn, and his propensity for domestic violence suggested he was capable of heinous crimes, since he’d committed them. But a lead in 1998, 50 years after 21-year-old Virginia vanished, an old timer wanted to get something off his chest – long ago, he’d been privy to a confession in the form of braggadocio. It was, perhaps, the most promising lead the case had ever seen. Part 3 of 3.

The Denton Police had lost four days by the time they found out 21-year-old Virginia Carpenter was missing. But when they did, searches were organized quickly, and information was dispatched to law enforcement nationwide. When Texas Ranger Lewis C. Rigler entered the case, one of his immediate concerns was interviewing a handful of folks, including Virginia’s suitor, Kenny. Although his one eyebrow remained raised at the thought of this young man’s potential motives, Ranger Rigler could find nothing implicating him. Upon the discovery that the Carpenter Family was acquainted with three of the victims of a series of depraved and notorious crimes in Virginia’s hometown of Texarkana, the lawman couldn’t help but wonder if the infamous Phantom Killer also had a hand in her disappearance.

In Texarkana, Texas on June 1st, 1948, 21-year-old Virginia Carpenter hopped aboard the 3 o’clock train to Denton, where she was to attend a couple courses during the summer semester at Texas State College for Women. She arrived at 9:05 that night, but soon after, vanished into thin air. Her mother Hazel didn’t find out for four days, and much to her dismay, no effort had been made by the college to try and locate her, even as her luggage lay on the front lawn of the dormitory where she was registered. The Denton Police, to their credit, acted fast, but with four days of investigation lost, the trail they were working with was already cold.

In May of 1983, 35-year-old Esther Broberg was dropped off by her husband at an after hours drinking joint in East Austin, Texas. There, she hung out with her close friend and some others. Just as the sun threatened to rise, the group parted ways. But Esther never made it home. Instead, just a few hours later, passersby at EH Givens Park, not far from where she’d been, discovered Esther Broberg’s body. The scene was shocking; the violence acted out on the mother of two was unfathomable. Unforgivable. The Austin Police quickly developed suspects in the case, and a series of confessions, but there could be no trial. Even after one of the suspect’s DNA matched evidence found on Esther’s body a couple decades later, the same roadblocks remained. If you have any information about the abduction, rape, and murder of Esther Gevara Broberg, please call the Austin Police Department Homicide Tip line at 512-477-3588.

Managing editor of the Clifton Record, W. Leon Smith, continued working both Judy Whitley and Mickey Bryan’s cases for years. In 1999, when ex-Clifton policeman Dennis Murry Dunlap was officially named Judy’s killer, Leon was almost certain Joe Bryan hadn’t murdered his wife Mickey but couldn’t find the evidence to exonerate him. A few years later, a Waco attorney began looking into Joe’s case and was appalled at the lack of evidence he was convicted on. It was this attorney’s student at Baylor University Law, Jessica Freud, however, that inarguably proved Joe Dale Bryan should not have been convicted. Still, an old school, old guard Texas judge wasn’t willing to write the wrong the state had made.

In 1991, Don Whitley visited the editor of the local newspaper with a plea: help him get justice for his daughter, slain Clifton, Texas teenager Judy Whitley. He had a suspect in mind who might also be responsible for another crime – the murder of 44-year-old Clifton Elementary School Teacher Mickey Bryan. The newspaperman knew that Mickey’s wife Joe Bryan had been convicted of the crime, and he had faith in the justice system, but while searching for justice for Judy Whitley, doubts began to emerge. Particularly, when a Clifton Policeman became a seemingly viable suspect for both. Part 5 of 6.

In August of 1984, just five months after 13-year-old Helen Kilgore was found murdered on the side the road, authorities in Bosque County, Texas had another body – that of 19-year-old Hood County woman Shelia Vandygriff. Though Shelia was murdered, the friend with whom she was abducted was set free after being assaulted. She went to Hood County authorities with what had happened, but they struggled to find leads, at least any that were viable or made any sense. After three law enforcement jurisdiction, the Bosque County Sheriff’s Office, the Hood County Sheriff’s Office, and the Texas Rangers failed to identify a strong suspect, the murder of Shelia Vandygriff went cold. Was there a connection between Shelia’s murder and the other three in the county within a two-year period that shared similarities?

When it was time for the defense to present their case in the State of Texas V. Joe Dale Bryan, for the murder of Mickey Marlene Bryan, attorney Charles McDonald was confident he’d get his client off. Not only did he truly believe in Joe’s innocence, but also, the prosecution simply had no evidence. Certainly nothing scientific. But, did the fact that the state presented what they had as forensic facts influence the jury? With the murder of Judy Whitley earlier in 1985 still unsolved, it seems likely the public was looking to close at least one of the cases. And since Judy’s had no suspect on trial, Mickey’s murder, at the hands of someone statistically more likely to have committed it, might help put the public’s mind at ease should it be closed. But at what cost?
