Texla True Crime

This week we're in Louisiana covering the disappearance of a father of three.  If you have any information about this gentleman's whereabouts, contact the Houma Police Department at 985-873-6371.  
My dog and cats once again demand to be heard, and I speak again on the glories of Louisiana pronunciation.  You can reach me on Instagram @texlatruecrimepod, Twitter @texlatruecrime and email at [email protected].  You can also friend me on Facebook at Lisa Texla.

We're in Amarillo this week going over the story of Robin Bledsoe, a young mother of two whose life was tragically cut short. 
The Texla True Crime Canine, all 16 pounds of fluff and terror, does his best to be heard throughout the episode.  
I discuss my fear of cows, the evil of stockings, and why you should always trust the Erin in your life.  
Thanks for listening!  I'd love to hear from you (well, only really, really nice things I'm a delicate Southern flower) at [email protected]
I'm on social media @texlatruecrimepod on Instagram and @texlatruecrime on Twitter.

This week's episode is set in Louisiana.  I get hangry and the animals that run my house enjoyed making noise for most of the recording.  This episode covers violence against women.  I tried not to get too graphic, but if it's a sensitive issue for you, skip this one.  Thanks so much for listening.
