In this chilling episode of King’s Talk, Lo and Presley dive deep into one of Texas’s most aggravating unsolved crimes: the 1991 Yogurt Shop Murders in North Austin. Four teenage girls, Jennifer Harbison, Sarah Harbison, Eliza Thomas, and Amy Ayers, were brutally killed inside a frozen yogurt shop. Decades later, the case remains open, the questions remain unanswered, and the DNA still doesn't match.

Through detailed storytelling, updated forensic context, and historical insight, this episode unpacks the mishandled investigation, the controversial confessions, the legal fallout, and the forensic evidence that changed everything. Lo and Presley also explore media pressure, flawed theories, political missteps, and the modern forensic tools that could still solve the case...if anyone's willing to use them.
