Not really a personal connection but I lived in Oak Creek when 2 hitmen broke into and killed some dude that lived a few trailers over from where I lived. Ol boy kilt one the hitmen also. Had my window open that night but the copious amounts of Gray Goose my neighbor and I drank kept me from hearing the gun battle.
I was a juror on the murder trail for one of the guys involved

Did you hike it, bike it, jog it, or walk it? Were there lots of murders along the way?

I found out not too long ago a story about my next door neighbor. When he was a kid, his dad went crazy. He came home and shot everyone in the family in the head including himself. My neighbor was the only one to survive. The police told him that his family died in a car accident at the time because he was so young. Crazy.

I knew the twins. They were seriously two of the nicest people I've ever met in my life.

Another friend was shot and killed by a man she had dated. He turned the gun on himself before the police arrived, so no one will ever know what really happened. She was best friends with the twins and was murdered just days after the capture of their murderer/brother.

Jennifer Cave. I was friends with her from high school and my mother and her mom knew each other well. She went to TSU and had moved to Austin and went out celebrating with her boyfriend and his ex girlfriend for her new job at an Austin legal firm. The boyfriend and his ex were Texas students.

They went back to his place and her boyfriend shot and killed her. With the help of his ex, they dismembered her body and left a mess. Investigators were disturbed to find that there was no attempt to dispose of the body. They were just playing with her mutilated corpse. There was no clear motive. All three were supposedly close at the time of the murder.

Her new employer called her parents after she did not show up at work. They tried to call her and then started calling her boyfriend who said he hadnt seen her. Her folks drove from Corpus to Austin and found her car still parked outside his apartment and knocked. Her boyfriend answered but did not let them in and told them to go away that she wasnt there. The police were called and they told the parents that they couldnt search without a warrant. The parents waited until the cops left, busted the door down and found her right where the boyfriend and his ex left her.

That has to be the worst as a parent.

This story is horrible. I've seen it covered on "48 Hours." The ex-GF is an idiot.

A few friends and a couple acquaintances shot or stabbed in high school. A couple of acquaintances shot people in high school. One guy that was friends with my boyfriend (we all hung out) had my boyfriend drive him to his "grandma's" house where he murdered and raped her. We knew he was crazy but didn't think he would murder someone. He was killed in prison shortly thereafter.

Grew up across the street in Houston from the Woodley's before they moved to Cy-Fair area. The youngest son was a year or two younger than I was.

Triple homicide that has never been solved - Father and two sons - one who had just graduated college and one in high school at Cy-Fair.

No motive or suspects have ever been concretely identified that I have ever heard.

A friend in 5th grade was murdered by her serial abusive husband. H was almost 40, she was 19, and he had been in prison several times before for beating his two ex-wives. I found out years later by happenstance upon running into another friend from that time.

Knew someone on a forum years ago who was murdered, completely random killing that has never been solved. He was at a rest stop during a trip and someone shot him. No one on the forum found out for several months until the admin finally got in contact with a relative.

The one which will always eat at me is one everyone here knows about. I had several classes with Noel Devin as we shared the same major and gradated a year apart. One of the nicest person I've ever met. Wish I had asked her out.

May that piece of **** killer, who I will not dignify by using his name, enjoy burning in hell for the rest of eternity


She was 19, in 5th grade, and married to a 40 year old?

I graduated in 94! She taught at Simms, Highlands, and Lake Rd but I believe she was at Lake Rd about the time you would have been in 3rd/4th. We probably know many of the same people.

My mom said he refused to talk about it. Not a crime but, horrible nonetheless.

She married him when she was 19. I knew her in 5th grade. And yes, he was 40.

Sorry if it was worded badly.

My cousin was gunned down by cops in his grandmother's front yard.

Another cousin had her grandson murdered by drowning. The child's parents lived with a couple of other people and the guy and his mother decided to throw my cousin's grandson in a pond to make more room for the guy and his girlfriend's upcoming baby.

Yea I was there too at the time. My brother came and stayed with me because Unsolved mysteries wanted to interview him. After the rapist was caught my brother had to testify in court.

The rapist parents helped him leave the country and they were put in prison.

One of the women he raped recognized him at a Tom Thumb Grocery in Dallas working as a cashier. He was caught soon after.

I specifically remember the girl gets raped behind Olson Field right after the rec center was built.

Those were scary times

When I was a kid, I got stuck in my grandmother's house when Jerry McFadden escaped from jail. My grandfather dropped off trailer about 50 yards from where the cops captured McFadden about 15 minutes later.

For about 5 years I did a lot of missing persons/victim's advocacy volunteer work. At any given time, I was working with 4-6 families of suspected kidnapping and/or murders. Often playing charades between law enforcement and family members that were the primary suspects.....it gets me booted out of jury duty pretty fast.
