The Murder of Leon Laureles in Brown County, Texas Part 2

The Murder of Leon Laureles in Brown County, Texas Part 2

Part 2 of 2. Juan Leon Laureles was only 30 years old when he was shot execution style on the side of a small gravel road just east of Brownwood, Texas in May of 1996 – his 1988 Ford Thunderbird ablaze. Few theories have been floating around since that terrible, tragic day. The Brown County Sheriff’s department has theirs but won’t acknowledge that there might be a better one: a theory that actual makes sense and seems to better fit the known facts – that the slaying was an act of hate. But, of course, there are other plausible theories and some recent information that allows for even more speculation. Still though, with the climate of hate towards the gay and lesbian community, among other groups, in Brown County and the city of Brownwood, the possibility that Leon’s murder was a hate crime is extremely possible and plausible. Did the Sheriff’s Department investigation lag because Leon Laureles was gay? It certainly seems that way.

If you have any information on the 1996 murder of Juan Leon Laureles, please contact the Brown County Sheriff’s Office at 325-646-5510.

Alexandria “Ali” Joy Lowitzer, Part Two

Alexandria “Ali” Joy Lowitzer, Part Two

Ali Lowitzer stepped off her school bus yards from her home in 2010 never to be seen again. Theories as to what happened to her range from homicide to sex trafficking, the latter seemingly a distinct possibility considering the proximity of where she vanished from to Houston. Houston is one of the country’s largest sex trafficking hubs and is by far the largest in Texas. This is part 2 of Ali’s story.

Alexandria “Ali” Joy Lowitzer, Part One

Alexandria “Ali” Joy Lowitzer, Part One

No matter how watchful an eye we keep on our children, it is difficult to completely shield them from the bad in the world; this is especially true when a malevolent individual, or individuals, target them for harm. Even in quiet, seemingly safe suburban areas, we take this for granted. Everyone does because we feel like these things don’t happen to us…but they can. Ali Lowitzer stepped off her school bus yards from her home in 2010 and has never been reported to be seen again. This is Ali’s story and family’s story. Please visit AlexandriaLowitzer.com to learn more about Ali and donate to the efforts to find her, and head over to Facebook and look for the page “Hope For Ali; Alexandria Joy Lowitzer” to keep up to date on events and explore Ali’s life through photos and memories from Jo Ann.

Carla Walker, Part Eight: Other Persons of Interest

Carla Walker, Part Eight: Other Persons of Interest

Are there other individuals besides the persons of interest that triggered the Fort Worth Police Department’s attention during the investigation into Carla Walker’s homicide? We found a few that may have flown beneath their radar, not only from our own research but also from friends of the Walker family as well as classmates of Carla’s. This episode explores two stories that can be at least partially corroborated with both circumstantial events or evidence.  Please listen to the end of the episode for a promo from our friend’s podcast, Pretend Radio.

Carla Walker, Part Seven: Detective John Terrell

Carla Walker, Part Seven: Detective John Terrell

Few individuals outside of the Walker family dedicated their lives to finding Carla Walker’s murderer; to be certain, no police officer worked as diligently and relentlessly as Fort Worth Police Department Burglary Detective, John Terrell. His work on Carla’s case largely drove the narrative that the local public came to know and trust. But was his motive rooted in seeking Justice for Carla or was Terrell’s deepest, most subconscious desires to see the case through a result of his hellbent obsession with a known burglar and rapist?  Please listen to the end of the episode for a promo from our friend and fellow Texan’s podcast, Swindled. You can support gone cold podcast – texas true crime by visiting https//:www.patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast.

Carla Walker, Part Six: Persons of Interest

A few persons of interest emerged during the investigation into Carla Walker’s homicide. Unfortunately, none panned out, even a few that seemed particularly capable of the crime. Tommy Ray Kneeland and Jimmy Dean Sasser, however interesting they seemed at the time, turned out to be discounted by police.  Please listen to the end of the episode for a promo from our friend’s podcast, True Crime Story Time.
