Texas Wine and True Crime

Back in 1983, five people lost their lives in a robbery gone wrong. The assailants, two identified as Darnell Hartsfield and his cousin Romeo Pinkerton, were eventually convicted of this crime decades later. A third DNA profile found doesn't match any of the suspects. That person is still unidentified and still being pursued by law enforcement. 

All 5 victims had been shot. Opie Hughes had been sexually assaulted and found 50 yards away from the rest of the victims. 

The victims that died that day were Mary Tyler, 37, Opie Hughes, 39, Joey Johnson, 20, David Maxwell, 20 and Monte Landers, 19. 

Kimberly Cargill was an abuser in every sense of the word. She abused her children, her friends, her husbands, the system, and anyone else in her destructive path. Cherry Walker was introduced to this monster by a girl that lived in the same apartment unit as Cherry. Kimberly took advantage of Cherry, who was 39 years old at the time of her murder, but had the mental capacity of a 9 year old. Kimberly would leave her 4-year old with Cherry, sometimes for days. 

Kimberly Cargill was sentenced to death for killing Cherry Walker. The motive...so Cherry would not testify against her in a child welfare case. Kimberly was an unfit mother, and knew she could lose custody of her son if Cherry testified. This is the story of a woman with a heart of gold that meets the devil.

He has always maintained his innocence, but he is out of appeals, and one month away from execution. You decide, is Ivan Cantu innocent or guilty?
