About this episode

Our card this week is Debra Sue Moore, the Jack of Clubs from Texas. 

After a night out with a new love interest in May 1986, 25-year-old Debra Sue Moore was fatally stabbed steps outside her date’s apartment door. Police quickly zeroed in on her estranged husband as a suspect, but a string of attacks on several other women in the same area during the same week forced them to consider whether a serial predator could be to blame for Debra’s death.

  • If you have any information about the death of Debra Sue Moore, please contact Detective Lauren Gonzales at 432-335-4926. You can also call Odessa Crimestoppers at 432-333-TIPS.
  • Det. Gonzales is especially interested in hearing from anyone who may have seen Debra at The Brewery bar in Odessa on the evening of May 16, 1986. She believes the following people may have been there and hopes to speak with them: Larry Reimer, Connie Bean, Johnny Williams, Pat Ward, Lynn Stanford, Gina Wessels and Rhonda Crawford.
