Hi, I’m Julie Mattson, your host of Pushing Up Lilies. In this episode, we’re going back to one of the most heartbreaking and haunting cases in Texas history, the Yogurt Shop Murders. Four teenage girls, ages 13 to 17, brutally murdered inside an Austin yogurt shop in 1991. For over three decades, their families waited for answers. And now, thanks to the incredible advancements in DNA technology, we finally have a break in the case.In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through the details of this chilling crime, the years of false leads, and how the truth eventually came to light. We’ll talk about how modern forensic science, something I see the power of every day in my work as a death investigator, played a key role in uncovering a serial killer who had managed to hide in plain sight.Join me as we honor the victims, examine the long road to justice, and explore how one tiny strand of DNA changed everything.* Listener discretion is advised.
