Tales of true crime defy the imagination in the sprawling expanse of Texas, where the mythical shadows of oil, cowboys, and cattle loom as large as the state itself.
The Texas Crime Stories podcast unfurls the grim tapestry of the most confounding and chilling crimes that have scarred the Lone Star State and the Southwestern United States.
What is it about Texas that makes it the epicenter of some of the world’s most bizarre and perplexing criminal acts? What festers in the underbelly of Texas' vibrant facade?
Peabody Award-winning Investigative reporter Robert Riggs takes listeners across the state’s diverse landscape, into the hearts and minds of those who pursue justice, and into the psyche of evil.
Riggs peels back the layers of the criminal mind with chilling precision and delves deep into the grim realities of criminal cases that have left suffering and emotional scars across communities.
“Texas Crime Stories” reveals the full scope of human depravity through face-to-face encounters with serial killers, inside looks at maximum-security prisons, and firsthand reports of the aftermath of homicides and mass shootings.
Riggs and a cadre of veteran police beat reporters open their notebooks to tell real-life stories based on the facts from case files and investigators.
Listeners hear from Riggs’ network of law enforcement sources established during three decades of Television and online reporting.
Each story is a deep dive into the maze of criminal psychology, seeking answers to the ‘why’ behind the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of crimes that are often stranger than fiction.
