A six-million-dollar mansion, a bitter divorce, and a midnight shooting that left a 12-year-old dead—then a not guilty verdict that stunned Texas. We retrace the aftermath of the Cullen and Priscilla Davis case and examine how venue changes, narrative warfare, and community loyalty can bend the arc of justice. From Racehorse Haynes’s masterclass in defense strategy to a courtroom culture that felt more like a fan convention, we unpack how a jury heard two eyewitnesses, zero physical evidence, and a thousand rumors—and still walked a wealthy defendant out the front door.
The story doesn’t end there. When the divorce court kept ruling against him, a murder-for-hire scheme targeted the judge and Priscilla. An ally flipped to the FBI, staged macabre photos with ketchup “blood,” and recorded the payoff in a diner parking lot. On tape, with cash in hand, the case seemed unloseable—until the defense floated a wild counter: he was “helping” the FBI. Despite the Bureau’s denial, another jury acquitted. We explore why that argument resonated, what it reveals about juror psychology, and how hometown prestige, oil money, and media frenzy intertwined to shape both trials.
Along the way, we reflect on the victims who too often vanish in the glare: Andrea, a young girl whose death became a footnote, and Stan Farr, remembered mostly for how the case treated his family afterward. We follow the mansion’s strange second lives, the fall of Ken Davis Industries, and the uneasy legacy of a case that still feels modern in all the worst ways. If you care about true crime beyond headlines—jury dynamics, defense tactics, and the real cost to families—you’ll find this chapter of Texas history impossible to forget.
