Summary

Welcome to A Little Less Mess, it's our companion episode to our main weekly releases. In ALLM, you will find just the facts, no opinions, no jokes, no banter, but do not fear! If you would like to hear our full thoughts on this case (and inappropriate jokes) check out the weekly regular episodes released on Thursdays (they're the numbered episodes).

In June of 1987, Linda was found murdered in her home in Arlington, Texas. Although neighbors saw the man that killed Linda, it would take almost 20 years to finally find out his name. To the families surprise, Linda was not the killers only victim...

Fun Fact: In Texas, it is illegal to milk another person's cow. The Texas Penal Code states that doing so results in a fine of no more than $10. The current Texas law makes the act a theft of personal property.
