Andrea Yates appeared to have it all - she was intelligent, athletic, married to a NASA engineer, and had five beautiful children. One morning, after her husband left for work, that all changed. She had drowned all of her children, one at a time. What could lead a mother - one who deeply loved her children - to this point?

To say this case is disturbing is putting it lightly. The headlines were eye popping. The detectives had never seen anything like it. The community was blindsided. Enough eye puns... in the early 1990s, the Dallas area saw (ok, last one) attacks on some of their most vulnerable like nothing before. Working women were being targeted, and the killer had a horrendous calling card - he kept the eyes as trophies. Join us this week as we take a look (just kidding) at the Texas Eyeball Killer, Charles Albright.

As a kid, I remember seeing this case hit the news, and I even remember seeing the footage of Clara circling the Nassau Hilton, purportedly running over her husband numerous times. I asked my husband about it, because he's a few years older and also grew up in the area, so I assumed he would, too. Nope! He responded with "No, I had a good childhood." Ouch! But in episode two, we explore what exactly drove Clara to the edge.

This is the case that got us interested in creating a true crime podcast. In this episode, we take a brief look at the disappearance and murder of eleven different girls in the Galveston area in the early 1970s and the beginning of what was dubbed "The Texas Killing Fields." Growing up in the area, I (Kristen) remember hearing about a lot of the cases, so I feel a strong connection to these cases. Of course, there is a ton more on these cases than we cover, and we highly encourage you to delve deeper.
