In Part 2 of our series on the infamous 1991 Austin Yogurt Shop Murders, we continue our deep dive into one of Texas’s most haunting cold cases.
Four young girls—Eliza Thomas (17), sisters Jennifer (17) and Sarah Harbison (15), and Amy Ayers (13)—were brutally murdered in a crime that shocked the community and left a scar that hasn’t healed more than 30 years later.
This episode unpacks the decades-long investigation, including the multiple suspect interrogations, false confessions, and courtroom drama that followed. We also look at how evolving DNA technology and renewed media interest—including an upcoming HBO documentary—are bringing this case back into the spotlight.
Will there ever be real justice for these girls? We explore the unanswered questions and the emotional toll this case continues to take on the victims’ families.
If you or anyone you know has information that could help, please come forward. Even the smallest detail could make a difference.
