Killer may be on this thread asking for anything new....

I was about to ask what are the chances the killer/killers have been members of this board?

Also, I'm craving some froyo after watching that.

First episode ended with a lengthy interview with one of the mothers that was shot in '09 that was heart-wrenching. The footage was from an unfinished documentary. 

Pretty interesting.

This case deeply touched me especially because it happened in the area I grew up and my wife use to get yogurt there all the time before the murders.  I will wait for all episodes to drop before watching.  Never understood how this case didn’t get solved.

Yeah.  It's not like forensics and other investigative means were of stone-age quality in 1991.  They were eventually able to find the killer of Michael Morton's wife, and that happened in 1987.

This case was so horrific that I lived halfway across the country at the time and we heard about this on the news in North Carolina.

They mentioned in the first episode that DNA testing was pretty new at that time.

The biggest problem was the fire and especially the water used to put the fire out. Boatloads of forensic evidence was washed away.

some nostalgic clips of early 90s Austin brought back a ton of memories.

Oh, and that "we are the world" style tribute song from the Austin musicians.. tuuuuurible.

Forgot this was coming to HBO but rolled across it last night. Hit record and Mrs C-Man (who loves this shit) and I will start it this week.

This was my freshman year at UT. I remember it being very, very unnerving.

That was tough to watch. I looked over at my wife after that and she was very upset. We have 2 daughters and one works at a yogurt shop now, so it hit a bit close to home. 
 

I was 11 when it happened and remember the city feeling different afterwards for quite a while.

I was in high school when this happened. Luckily I was 18 or my mother would have locked me in my room until the murderer was found.

Sounds like you don't have an alibi
