It’s been more than 30 years—and the question remains: who killed the four girls at the Austin yogurt shop?

In this episode, True Crime Prevention sits down with the Brett and Alice of The Prosecutors Podcast to examine the chilling facts, lingering mysteries, and controversial turns in the Austin Yogurt Shop Murders.

From false confessions to destroyed evidence, we explore how this case became a cautionary tale of investigative failure—and what it teaches us about protecting victims, preserving evidence, and preventing future miscarriages of justice.

2025 was a year that kept true crime at the center of the national conversation. In this special episode of the True Crime Prevention Podcast round up episode, we’re joined by Sheriff Aaron Hanson of Douglas County, Nebraska to break down some of the biggest and most talked-about cases of the year.

From the shocking developments in the Bryan Kohberger case, to the explosive allegations and legal fallout surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs, to the deeply divisive Karen Read trial, we unpack what these cases reveal about investigations, media coverage, public trust, and the criminal justice system.

We also touch on the cultural and political moments that shaped the true crime landscape in 2025- including the recent tragic murder of Hollywood director Rob Reiner.

More than a recap, this conversation focuses on what we can learn—how high-profile cases influence public perception, where systems succeed or fail, and what real crime prevention looks like moving forward.
