Episode 119: Never Rah Rah Women | Alien Property Custodian and Melissa Lucio
Hillary and Tina cover the Alien Property Custodian and the State of Texas vs. Melissa Lucio.
Hillary’s Story
The Office of Alien Property Custodian began with the purpose of holding property belonging to enemies of the United States. BUT things go too far when bribes are exchanged for patents and other goods.
Tina’s Story
Melissa Lucio lost her daughter in 2007 after a tragic accident. BUT despite no evidence to the contrary, the State of Texas sentenced her to death for a murder that never happened.
