The 1991 Austin Yogurt Shop Murders remain one of the most haunting unsolved crimes in Texas history. In this episode, we investigate how four men — Forrest Welbourne, Michael Scott, Robert Springsteen, and Maurice Pierce — became central figures in the case.
We cover:
🕵️♂️ How each suspect was connected to the crime scene
⚖️ The controversial false confessions and coerced interrogation tactics
🔗 The wrongful convictions, overturned verdicts, and what happened to the men later
📌 The current status of the Austin cold case and why the Yogurt Shop Murders remain unsolved over 30 years later
