In 1991, a fire at an Austin yoghurt shop led firefighters to a scene so horrific it would haunt them forever: four teenage girls murdered in one of Texas’ most shocking crimes. The Yoghurt Shop Murders became a case that devastated families, traumatised a city, and remained unsolved for more than three decades. Now, thanks to advances in DNA technology, investigators believe they’ve finally identified the killer. Margaret Brown, director of HBO and A24’s The Yoghurt Shop Murders, explains the wrongful confessions, the families’ fight for answers, and the extraordinary twists that changed everything.
