In a span of just over two years starting in 2018 in a small area of suburban Dallas, Texas, in a cluster of retirement facilities, 26 senior citizen’s died, of “natural causes.” At least that was the finding of the police authorities. Oddly in all cases there was clearly a robbery involved of expensive jewelry (including wedding rings taken off the deceased), and in two cases a safe was purloined.

In almost every case, investigators failed to collect fingerprints or DNA evidence, order autopsies, or photograph crime scenes - all standard death-investigation practices, particularly when paired with a theft or burglary report, as was the case with nearly every homicide in this grim procession.

Join me as I discuss this troubling case with journalist and AARP Magazine contributor Lise Olsen as she shares her story of UNNATURAL CAUSES.
