Episode 54 The Austin Yogurt Shop Murders Part 1
On December 6, 1991, an unthinkable crime happened in Austin, Texas. As four girls were closing up the ICBY shop at 11pm(I Can't believe it's Yogurt), they were attacked by one or more people. What followed was a terrible quadruple murder in which each girl was shot execution style in the head. The victims were four teenage girls: 13-year-old Amy Ayers, 17-year-old Eliza Thomas, 17-year-old Jennifer Harbison, and Jennifer's 15-year-old sister Sarah
The crime also included sexual assault, and arson. When firefighters arrived on scene thinking that they were dealing with a burning business, they found the bodies of the four girls inside, and it didn't take long to realize that they didn't die as a result of the flames.
The murders of the four young girls shocked Austin residents, and they began to wonder if an outsider had come to their city and done the unthinkable, or even more unsettling, could the killer or killers be living amongst them? Police rounded up every customer that they could find that had been in the store that night hoping that they may have important information. From the witnesses who were there that night, an assorted cast of potential suspects was generated. Police worked feverishly to locate and question all of these people. They only found some. Eventually, a group of local teens were focused on, and two were convicted of the crimes following an alleged confession. The convictions were later thrown out, and DNA believed to be from the killer did not match any of the young men suspected in the crime. The case went cold and remains unsolved to this day. However, investigators in this case have worked hard to solve it, and hope that DNA and other evidence may one day ID the real killer, or killers. In part 1 of our coverage, we discuss the crime, and the aftermath, as well as the investigation. In our next segment, we will look at other potential suspects as well as DNA clues.
