INFAMOUS: The Yogurt Shop Murders

AUDIOCHUCK
About this episode

In 1991, Austin, Texas was rocked by one of the most horrifying crimes the city had ever seen: four young girls were brutally murdered and set on fire inside a local yogurt shop. The investigation would stretch on for decades, leading to four men being accused of the crime, yet lingering questions and evolving forensic evidence have continued to cast doubt on whether justice was truly served.

Now, with renewed attention to the case, we’re re-releasing our original Crime Junkie episode. Whether you’re revisiting the details or hearing them for the first time, this is your chance to dive back into the facts, the timeline, and the troubling unanswered questions.
