Texas True Crime

In July 2018, the manhunt for a summer spree killer terrorizing the city of Houston became a race against time. First, a woman in her sixties was robbed and shot to death inside her home. Not long after, two workers at separate mattress stores were violently killed. Police connected the murders with other violent robberies after seeing the attacker's movements documented on video. See how the search for a dangerous fugitive came to a dramatic end - and how his rampage exposed cracks in the criminal justice system.

On Halloween 1985, 11-year-old Mary Stiles went to school dressed in a Care Bear costume. It was the last time anyone in her family ever saw her. That night, Mary vanished from her apartment complex in Baytown, Texas. Just days later, police began to receive bizarre letters from her killer, containing riddles and a map that ultimately led them to her body. Her violent murder sent shockwaves through her community, as police revealed what happened to her - and the identity of a killer no one expected.

It was supposed to be a fun night out. 21-year-old Andy Atkinson and 22-year-old Cheryl Henry had their whole lives ahead of them and just started dating each other in August of 1990. But one night, they never returned from a night out dancing. It wasn't long before Houston Police made a gruesome discovery in an area known as Lovers' Lane. Cheryl had been sexually assaulted and stabbed to death. Andy had been tied to a tree and was nearly decapitated. 35 years later, their families are still searching for an answer - who killed Cheryl and Andy?
