Yogurt Shop Murders: DNA Bombshell & TV Confession in Kraus Backyard Murder

Yogurt Shop Murders: DNA Bombshell & TV Confession in Kraus Backyard Murder Two devastating crimes. One episode. And a justice system that failed in both. Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, we dive into two of the most emotionally and legally disturbing cases we’ve ever covered. First—the Yogurt Shop Murders. Four girls brutally killed in 1991. And for years, police pursued the wrong men. Two were convicted. One died under the shadow of suspicion. All were innocent. Now, thanks to genetic genealogy and forensic DNA, the real killer— Robert Eugene Brashers —has been identified. But there’s no trial coming. Brashers died by suicide in 1999. So what happens when the truth arrives three decades late? We unpack: How fire-damaged evidence was finally reanalyzed Why police ignored signs pointing away from Springsteen, Scott, and Pierce The role of coerced confessions, tunnel vision, and flawed interrogation strategy What this case teaches us about criminal psychology and investigative failure Then, we pivot to an equally bizarre and tragic case: Lorenz Kraus , who walked into a CBS6 newsroom and calmly confessed on camera to killing both his parents and burying them in the backyard… seven years ago. In Hour 2, we break down the video, explore the potential god complex behind his confession, and ask what happens when someone bypasses the justice system entirely—and tells their story to the press instead. This isn’t just a double feature. It’s a breakdown of how cases go wrong, how lives are ruined by bad policing, and how—sometimes—truth shows up late, if at all. Subscribe and watch to the end. Because justice delayed is one thing. But justice denied is something else entirely. 🔖 HASHTAGS #YogurtShopMurders #LorenzKraus #HiddenKillersLive #TrueCrimeNow #FalseConfessions #DNAJustice #CBS6Interview #JusticeDelayed #SerialKillerID #PoliceAccountability Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
