Marilyn Hartman & Kathryn Jackson: The Dallas/Fort Worth ‘80s Murders Part 6

Author: TTC Productions December 23, 2024 Duration: 23:58
After the disappearances of Catherine Davis, Cindy Heller, and Angela Ewert, and the murder of Sarah Kashka, special homicide task force was created to investigate those crimes specifically. However, they were far from the only unsolved cases that had police stumped. Just days before Cindy Heller went missing, Twenty-nine-year-old middle school teacher Marilyn Hartman was brutally murdered in her home in what, on the surface, seemed like a burglary gone wrong. Not six weeks later, thirty-two-year-old middle school teacher Kathryn Jackson was killed in her apartment in what can only be described as a depraved and savage act of violence. In between those two crimes, a Colleyville woman named Judy Herron was also killed in her home. Similarities between these crimes had Fort Worth police detectives scrambling to make sense of them. Are they related?

If you have any information about the murders of Marilyn Hartman or Kathryn Jackson, please call the Fort Worth Police Cold Case Unit at (817) 392-4307.
