Night Watch: The Yogurt Shop Murders: Suspected Killer Named 34 Years Later

In tonight’s Night Watch, Katie breaks down one of Texas’ most haunting cases: the 1991 Yogurt Shop Murders. Four teenage girls were bound, assaulted, shot, and left in a burning yogurt shop, launching a massive task force and decades of fear in the community. Katie traces how investigators turned to the Reid Technique, extracted detailed confessions from four young men, and secured convictions despite a total lack of physical evidence tying them to the scene.  Then, the story flips as new Supreme Court rulings, advanced DNA testing, and a renewed cold case investigation dismantle those confessions and point toward a traveling serial predator. Thirty-four years later, a shell casing, Y-STR testing, genealogy, and a suicide weapon finally converge on one name: Robert Eugene Brashers.
