Disclaimer: This episode deals with the details of multiple sexual assaults. Listener discretion is advised.

Within 48 hours of 18 year old Retha Stratton’s brutal murder, her killer was caught. The case against him seemed airtight and her family knew justice would be served. But they could have foreseen that Texas law meant they would be spending two decades in and out of court.
