The DA Killer

July 9, 2026 · 43 min

Show notes

A Texas prosecutor is shot dead in a courthouse parking lot. Eight weeks later, the county's own DA and his wife are murdered in their home. As an entire county arms up waiting for the next hit, anonymous messages taunt investigators and point toward gangs and cartels — but the real killer is closer, and stranger, than anyone guessed. This is the Kaufman County DA murders.
