34 Years Late: Bob Motta Reacts to the DNA That Solved the Yogurt Shop Murders
In this segment of Hidden Killers Live, defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to go beyond the headlines of the Austin Police press conference. Yes, DNA and forensic genealogy have now identified Robert Eugene Brashers as the killer in the 1991 Yogurt Shop Murders. But Bob’s focus isn’t just how it was solved — it’s why it wasn’t solved sooner.
We break down how a single .380 shell casing sat in evidence for decades before being resubmitted to NIBIN, how a rare 27‑marker Y‑STR DNA profile languished without a match, and how a cold case detective finally pushed for manual searches across labs to find Brashers’ name. Bob explains how these delays happen, why evidence can sit untouched, and what this means for other cold cases nationwide.
This isn’t a victory lap. It’s a lesson in what happens when systems don’t keep up with science — and why families shouldn’t have to wait a lifetime for truth.
