  • Carla Walker: Heartbreak, Hope, and Justice
    2024/11/21

    Carla Walker, a vibrant and well-loved 17-year-old high school student from Fort Worth, Texas, was tragically abducted on February 17, 1974. After a Valentine’s Day dance, she was forcibly taken from her boyfriend's car in a sudden and brutal attack. Days later, her body was discovered in a culvert, revealing she had been brutally assaulted and murdered.

    For decades, Carla’s case remained unsolved, leaving her family and the community in anguish. However, in 2020, advancements in DNA technology led to a breakthrough. Police arrested and charged Glen McCurley, who had long been a suspect but evaded justice due to the lack of evidence at the time. His DNA linked him to Carla’s murder, and he was convicted, bringing long-overdue closure to her family.

    Carla’s case is a haunting reminder of the impact of violent crime, the perseverance of investigators, and the power of modern forensic science in solving cold cases.
