I ask this, because I watched a documentary about it a couple of weeks ago, its about a series of around 30 murders of girls and women since the 70's that have happend along the stretch of the I-45 from Houston-Galveston. Most of the people I asked didn't know anything about it?

Is it real? I mean it was a real documentary, but Texans don't seem to no anything about it? What's it like living in the area and still why no breakthroughs?

BBC News | Americas | Police baffled by Texas I-45 murders

^ Really old, I guess.

There was a documentary I cant find it but I do remember one of the little girls went for a run on her own and was murdered there was a big search I think her name was lauren or laura, another of the girls was related to Marilyn Monroe.

Its my understanding the law enforcement feels this is the work of several individuals rather than just one.

Got it, the documentary is called The Mystery of the I-45.

Investigative Reports - The Mystery of I-45.

Everyone does know about. It's just old 30+ yr. old news. It's been discussed here on the forum any number of times. Google it and lots of info will come up. And yes, from what I remember reading, law enforcement thought that more than one individual was involved.

Random act of violence are hard to stop. with out some tie to the victim, Cops don't know where to look. Sad for all those folks.

It cant be that old if a girl was murdered as recently as 2006.

I would have thought that in Texas of all places, the coppers would be on top of this, I thought you don't mess with the Law in Texas?

Dont you find it strange that there hasn't been one single suspect? In any of them?

Good job, you all have guns.
