The Slaying of Judy Herron and the Kidnapping for Ransom of Amy McNeil

In November of 1984, a brutal and shocking murder rocked the otherwise crime-free and exclusive Colleyville subdivision Tara Plantation. Judy Herron was a 37-year-old stay at home parent and was attacked and slain not long after her husband Lee left for work. Though Colleyville authorities enlisted the help of multiple outside jurisdictions, Judy’s killer slipped away without so much as a trace. Less than two months later, two similar, violent crimes perpetrated by the same man had Colleyville Detectives almost certain they’d found the man who murdered Judy Herron. Evidence to prove it, however, was elusive.If you have any information about the Judy Herron murder case, please contact Colleyville PD at (817) 503-1202.Special thanks to Shawn B for bringing our attention to Judy’s case.If you’d like to donate to law enforcement investigations that need funding or upload your DNA into a database used only for law enforcement investigations, you can at DNAsolves.comIf you don’t have DNA data from a consumer testing site, you can get a kit at connect.DNAsolves.comYou can support gone cold and listen ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram by using @gonecoldpodcastTexas State Historical Association, Fort Worth Star-Telegram, and the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum were used as sources for this episode.#JusticeForJudyHerron #Colleyville #ColleyvilleTX #TarrantCountyTX #Texas #TX #GoneCold #GoneColdPodcast #TexasTrueCrime #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #Podcast #ColdCase #UnsolvedMysteries #UnsolvedMurder #Murder #UnsolvedBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/gone-cold-texas-true-crime--3203003/support.
