This week I go over the case of the San Antonio Four.  I've apparently lived under a rock for the past 25 years because I've never heard of the case.  It's fascinating and infuriating.     Sources:  https://drive.google.com/open?id=1TICYxGf_Ln5X4FedF-qC96VigyEP_KcrnKTHeTcK-Kw   Contact me:  @texlatruecrimepod on Instagram, @texlatruecrime on Twitter, Lisa Texla on Facebook, or email at [email protected]

Just a fun bonus recap of the Lifetime movie Christmas in Louisiana.  The movie is my sole source, haha.  Hope you enjoy! I noticed I was talking faster than usual, sorry!!  If it's too annoying I'll redo it.  I can't imagine my precious self being annoying, but stranger things have happened.

Many thanks to Anne for suggesting this episode.  It's a heartbreaking tragedy of a mother and daughter whose lives ended far too soon.     Stay tuned for a little blooper segment at the end.  I couldn't baseball math today and felt I needed to shame myself publicly.    Sources: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1pBaUZVu1YFKlWi6KGYF7dl8nSPwfMxUXxToNziLGk3M

Today I'm talking about the deaths of three transgender black women in Louisiana in 2017.  I switch things up a little in this episode format-wise.  I talk about food again and make several funny (to me) comments.   I've got a promo for the 10-96 Crime Chicks podcast in the show-even though I heard on final edit that I said 10-96 Chicks.  Sorry ladies!!!!   Definitely check out their show, it's great and I can't wait for their next episode.  Link to my...

This week's episode is set in Louisiana.  I get hangry and the animals that run my house enjoyed making noise for most of the recording.  This episode covers violence against women.  I tried not to get too graphic, but if it's a sensitive issue for you, skip this one.  Thanks so much for listening.    You can contact me at [email protected]; Instagram @texlatruecrimepod; and Twitter...
