Astounding American True Tales Of Crime
News of the Times Episode 349 | 1929-1930
In today’s episode it is 1929 to 1930 Texas. 
Coming across one of the stories in our research, we were astounded – and we are hardened long time crime researchers!  This then led us on to more stories – all from Texas and all around the same time!
The stories include a man carrying on an affair who attempts to blow up his wife and children.  It is his 4th attempt to kills his wife and his patience is running thin.  Her body parts had to be scraped off buildings.
Other stories include the 1930’s version of a Miss Universe contestant attempting to kill her bigamous husband,
 a sailor who has left a death trail around the world.  Some people collect fridge magnets from each place they visit – he apparently killed in each port.
There is also a lawyer who, upon finding out of his daughter’s secret marriage, kills her new husband and then believes he should get off based on old Texas law. 
And we have the young woman, with her friends, who finds out her boyfriend is cheating on her and does her best to both humiliate and punish him - harshly.
A round robin of what we think are astounding cases from Texas is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays
Hosted by Robin Coles.
