I live in Ft. Worth and they just made an arrest based on DNA. He is now being held at the Tarrant County Jail on a $100,000 bond. It was a 77 year old married father of 2. It took nearly 50 years but they finally solved it. Hopefully now her family can be at peace.
What a piece of garbage. Sad he got so much undeserved freedom. He should have been in prison this whole time.
Some people should never be paroled
agree.
Some people deserve a sentence that _cannot_ be paroled!
most people shouldn't be paroled🤷♀️
Amen
So sad...sounds like the boyfriend has survivors guilt, poor man :( Hopefully one day justice will be served. Once again, a great video hun, professional and compassionate :) P.S. Your cat is so cute! Think they work on their own time haha! xxx
To the sister and brother and boyfriend of Carla, may you all be comforted in your sorrow and soon receive the closure you so desperately need.
They solved the case they found the person who did it through DNA. I'm putting a lot of comments but I just kind of want everyone to know that they found him all these people that well I said this video gets some facts wrong and there's a lot of fluff in the beginning it's still a good video and it obviously get some people pretty upset that the guy got away well he no longer has gotten away they got him
Gabby was the boy who harrassed Carla & Rodney at the burger place ever questioned? i didn't hear you mention that...
Very true that person should have been questioned.
It wasn't a boy so the case was solved through DNA 2 days ago
@@dreamsdocumtru81 poor kid had nothing to do with it so you were wrong. They saw the case 2 days ago 3 days ago I guess now through that genealogical DNA bulshit. I mean look as good at solving a lot of very important cases but we have to we have to make some laws about what you can and can't do with it. Right guy I have no problem with it being used to solve murders and rapes but that should be where it stops the end period end of story. Because you just have to have laws people didn't give their consent to this and well murder and rape don't have statute of limitations so you know that's fine use it for that but you know you can't just take someone's DNA and start making clones with me or doing all kinds of other irresponsible shit trying to solve a fucking burglary from 18 years ago that statute of limitations has run out on it's just like forget it it's like forget it dude you know she ain't going to work because they're making it illegal to arrest people so they're going to have to go back and close all the cold cases and get rid of statute of limitations that's what's going to be happening here and all the people committing crimes now won't have to worry about it until their cake case becomes a cold case it's it's bullshit this is just bullshit I hate this is just nonsense the way the world's going. All these clean shootings being fucking people are crying about these fucking clean shootings and no one is even brought up Daniel shaver who was murdered by the police because he's white no one cares if they kill a white guy. And police video leaks they show you the whole tape and the only people I've seen that were definitely either murdered while the only two people I saw that were murdered were George Floyd and Daniel shaver. in fact the first two responding officers to the George Floyd incident didn't do anything wrong at all. They were both they both had very little experience George fully was not acting like a rational man and they reacted how anyone else would it wasn't until dick head Mcscrotum face showed upand not only did he kneel on mr. Fluids neck long after he became unresponsive he also pushed down like he pushed himself down with the car to add even more force and this asshole has a bunch of brutality complaints like he needs to be convicted of murder his partner just stood there and watched this shit happened the other two people were trying to just come George Foley with a big guy and they were trying to hold him down they were the one guy was trying to control his legs the other guy was trying to control his waist didn't even see what this asshole was doing but eventually I guess you got to stand up and say all right man this guy is like not moving anymore you want to like stop killing him. But I don't know if anyone writes near me because they equate the two original responding officers I'm going to make sure I'm protecting my property with my AR-15 in any one steps foot on it is going to die. now well they're not going to equip the guy who literally murdered him there's no way because it is he's clearly guilty so I don't think we have to worry about that happening. but this terrorist organization wants to fucking cry about every police shooting it's ridiculous. You know I mean come on now the guy from Wisconsin he should have been shot seven times but he absolutely should have been shot the dumbass was fucking supposed to fucking listen to the fucking police he was he was he had a violent history so did George Floyd but that doesn't matter George Floyd was just scared and he was just scared this guy was I like making a beeline to his car like putting his children in danger like what did he expect he should have expected to be shot twice you're supposed to shoot twice and reassess your situation then again I've seen cops unload a 30-40 bullet song one guy who did have a gun in his hand but you don't hear anything about that because once again the guy was white. you know Daniel shaver was cold-bloodedly executed by one of the most worthless police officers I've ever seen and the situation was caused by a completely incompetent Sergeant who retired and ran to the Philippines with his pension they just look into that case because I'm rambling so bad here I don't know how I got so far off subject
Nevermind I've said way too much about this. Just let's be happy that they caught the guy
@Johnathan P Why? It was a drunk kid hitting on someone I guess you've never been to a party oh yeah we didn't have safe spaces and it wasn't illegal to to say things and like you didn't call the cops if there was about to be a fight you know you actually had to live your life there were no permit Patty's there were no Karen's back then there were no safe spaces it was not the corny ass pussy ass pussy whipped world it is now. besides it's pretty well documented that the guy was not a high school-age kid. Wow you people who grew up in this pussy ass world I don't know if things go back to the way they were you guys will end up dead in a week you're such bitches. Besides the case has been solved and it had nothing to do with some kid at a hamburger stand who probably had too much to drink that night
I really feel sorry for Rodney :( The survivor's guilt must had been very strong, hope justice will serve and he will find peace as well...
Some of the people in Fort Worth made Rodney's life a living hell to the point he was forced to move away. He had been cleared by the police early on. The Walker's knew all along that he didn't kill Carla.
@ilicarriedoll2843 I saw her brother talking about Rodney saying that he ended up living with her family for about a year. And then he moved away and I just saw him at the trial of the guy that they just caught.
This needs to be solved, NOW.. with our DNA advances, this should have been solved by 2020!
I was thinking the same. What happened with the hairs and the semen found in her body?
It’s been solved! And an arrest has finally been made.
Glen McCurley!!!
@@yesenia4216 wow!! that is AWESOME! Thank you for sharing!
@@dem4623 such good news
please cover the Case of Brigitte Grenier she is from my home town😔it happened in 1990. her story has never been covered on Utube😓
Poor Brigitte - I remember this case well and she is not forgotten.
Fellow Manitoban here too - yes Brigitte’s case still not solved after a wrongful conviction
I’m in port Neches was that the girl from orange tx murdered in crystal beach
Sounds like a case that geneology DNA might help. Also a DNA analysis to generate an approximate image of the donor - does he look like the person described by Rodney?
FWIW My gut feeling is that the letter is a red herring, perhaps entirely unrelated to the case and just an attempt by someone to harass someone else, perhaps an ex-boyfriend, by giving their name to the police.
I am thinking genetic DNA is the ticket to solving this one, as well. Especially since the killer left SO much of his DNA behind.
Yes I agree. DNA testing will break this case wide open. It's likely the letter was indeed a red herring unfortunately
I have a bad feeling that the letter might be a prank like the one pulled on Polly Klass's father after she was kidnapped.
The case was solved in September 2020 using DNA evidence.
This is so crazy! 4 weeks later and now the killer has been arrested and he confessed!
@heatherhopkins5284 She did that video 4 years ago? She just told me she has a updated one.
Glen mccurley has been charged with her murder after DNA genealogy done and then his actual DNA tested too and then he confessed and pled guilty. I can't seem to find though if he knew her or not before this, as I wonder why her promise ring was taken off. And how did he get hold of morphine? Anyone know any good links to further info on this?
@kath3832 millions of doses were given to soldiers and they were taught how to inject it, to use for a lifetime, that's just one way.
@kath3832 Gabby has a updated video
Sickening that a killer walks, breathes, laughs,etc & Carla’s family STILL suffers. 💔 How can someone live w themselves after taking a life ( possibly more than one life)???
I was five years old in 1974 and lived in a small town here in Texas. I I moved to Ft Worth in 1985; by then I was 15 and would be sixteen before long. My Aunt that I had moved in had spoken of this case. I was used to being able to go and do what ever I wanted when I wanted, but I had arrived in Ft Worth in a time just after commercials that quoted the time and asked, "Do you know where your kids are?" The case was eleven years old but it was still mentioned yearly for a while. I of course never heard of her but felt bad for her parents.
I remember that commercial!!! It scared me as a kid!
@@Flame44 it was a really creepy public service announcement.
77-year-old Glen Samuel McCurley is in custody in connection with the 1974 murder of Carla Jan Walker, who was 17-years-old when she was abducted, held captive and sexually assaulted before being murdered and left in a ditch after a Valentine's Day dance
May he rot in hell if they take him 😔😔😔
I wonder if they saved the pubic hair and the envelope the letter was sent in (for saliva)?? Also, what is your accent? They way you say “family” and “assault” is really unique to me!
Glen McCurley has been convicted of the crime, as it was his dna on Carla's clothes. He pled guilty.
I did an updated video on the case about a week or so after this video was posted 😊
I've never heard of this case. So horrible. I hope with reverse DNA they can find the killer like they did with the Golden State killer. I know the lab that did that is backed up with tons of cases but hopefully this one can be solved. I agree the DNA is a much better chance than the letter. The letter could just be written by someone who wanted attention and had no idea who killed Carla.
I have always wondered if there was any connection between this and the Fort Worth 3 case. The cases happened on the same year in the same area. Both cases had weird letters and women abducted from car areas
As usual, you do a SUPERB job! You pay respects to those who need it.
Gabby I was just on twitter there and apparently the police have arrested someone in connection to Carla’s case 🙏I Couldn’t believe it when I saw it as u just covered this Case. How amazing is that ♥️hopefully justice at last for poor Carla 🙏.Keep up your amazing work what u do and the work u put in means everything You have been my favourite true crime queen for a long time now♥️.
You cannot just get morphine. It’s very much monitored even back then. To have access to syringes and morphine the person would need access to a hospital.
Or a drug dealer
Or access to veterinary hospital, you use morphine on dogs and livestock sometimes.
if she was drugged why beat her? This person had a lot of rage.
I have chronic pain and am prescribed Morphine. So it is possible to get access to it.
I am on morphine prescribed by my GP for chronic pain ! I have been prescribed it in tablet form and liquid called oramorph no syringes needed ! It’s usually only injected if you are in hospital or you are on a morphine pump after surgery or for palitive care !You can buy it on the streets if you know where to buy it but maybe the killer was prescribed it or a family member was ! They have caught the killer now he is 77 years old at the time he was caught by dna !46 years after the murder he was 31 when he killed her he’s a old man with a wife , kids and grandchildren ! Claims to not be a monster ! He was just given life in prison ! What a joke he got away for that long but at least they got him in the end .You can watch his interrogation here on TH-cam Bluedot crime channel.Karma always catches up with you even when you are a very old man 👍👍👍
You know, how can the police after all this time think that a letter which they still insist on black out part of is going to solve this? You want the public's help - show all of the letter!
Has the DNA on file ever been compared to Wilhoit or that option explored? I REALLY want to know what he was about to say before his interview was interrupted.
It was just solved. It was Glen Samuel McCurley.
I love the vintage stories. Though I was born in 1975 so not all of them are all that "vintage" considering my age lol... Great work, as always
That is what I was thinking. I would hope that something like geneology DNA could have solved this Hopefully, soon there will be enough to make that happen.
If 10100 is their cop code for dead body. It has to be someone who's familiar with their codes. Most counties don't follow the same codes. Especially back then.
This case just got solved, and i just figured out it was my great aunt's brother in law...I'm really creeped out right now
Theda is so beautiful. She reminds me of my little fur baby.
Sounds like the DNA will be the only way to solve it. I pray for the family members, I can't imagine what they are going thru. Please keep us posted. Someone somewhere will have DNA that is close to the killer, then hopefully they can follow the trail.
They found him. Glen mccurley. Genealogy and then tested his actual DNA, and then he confessed and pled guilty.
I think her case is connected to the Fort Worth 3 and another case that happend a few years prior to Carla's dissapearance. They need to look at the man who was just arrested.
This case has been solved in September 2020 using DNA evidence!
HER CASE WAS SOLVED TODAY 😭💜👏🏼
Carla Walker has FINALLY been solved !!
To be this bold the perpetrator had to have done before and since. I mean just feels that way to me. I hope we get this solved. Possibly with familia dna
What a sad case. And the boyfriend. Bless his heart. BTW I enjoyed your crime and composition. Your artistry needs to be shown. Also Love Theda😍😍💝
This is very sad...as always Gabby you did a nice job
A very thorough coverage. I think it was a repeat offender but he was not from the Fort Worth area, perhaps an itinerant worker or a truck driver. It would help to run it through the FBI central records to see if there were similar cases throughout the country. Also genetic DNA could produce a near relative of the killer. Perhaps as 46 years have passed, the killer might be dead.
Excellent video covering this case! I hope a few things can happen to hopefully get the case solved. 1) A reverse genealogy can be performed w/ the DNA evidence from the scene (parabon labs 🧬 🥼 ). 2) The letter can be sent to a forensic lab or the FBI lab where light spectrum can be used to maybe find a print, or even a handwriting impression 📝🕵️♂️🕵️♀️
Glen McCurley killed Carla. He pled guilty and is now living the rest of his life in the Texas Dept of Corrections. The two Walker family members that are still alive have been absolutely loving and kind to Glen McCurley's wife and surviving son. They did not know that until shortly before he was arrested that he was the killer.
Hi there, I did an update video regarding the case 😊
For those of us who missed that update, THANK YOU!! 😊
This DNA needs to be added into the Familia DNA database and guaranteed to find the murderer I understand that it cost a lot of money but we can put 1.3 trillion into the stock market + 85 billion + 2 Military I think that we can sell some unsolved murders of teenage girls who were brutalized and raped who knows what these people have been doing over the last 50 years
Glen Samuel McCurley, 77,
Looking at the way it happened he had done it b4 and perhaps more often after, very strange he was not captured, he also might be dead.
As usual great video from yourself ur my favourite youtuber and i love how dedicated u are and that u give all these poor victims a voice.keep up the fantastic work babes xx❤🌈👍💕
Thank goodness this case was finally solved,I feel so awful for poor Carla and her loved ones and what they've gone through.
RIP Carla 🌹
I am praying for all the victims involved with this case, may you all feel some peace and see justice served.
so why did they not use genetic geneology and why didnt they test the dna against suspects????/
Face it, Gabby...Theda is either your new cohost or channel mascot! ;)
They caught him today in Fort Worth. 77 year old Glen Samuel McCurley confessed.after a DNA match.
Thanks for the upload Gabby. RIP Carla.
Did Carla volunteer at a hospital? If so, it might have been a nurse or orderly that had access the morphine.
Love speeding your video up to 1.25x while doing the dishes. Thanks for keeping me entertained in quarantine! (And if anybody isn’t still quarantining if they can, please do!) Sending so much love to Rodney. 🥺
Why would you speed up the video?
Just curious 😀
Angel Mum She talks a bit too slow for my personal preference, but regardless, AMAZING content and there’s always the speed option. :-)
The author of the letter isn’t able to keep a total secret., there’s someone out there he’s told. Most likely a put-upon wife.
After watching so much true crime i gotta say it really amazes me how seemingly random justice is :( like, there are cases where they get a conviction over the tiniest little detail, but then there's cases like this, a blatant attack with a witness in public with no attempts to hide evidence or evade police, and they get a away scott free. It's so sad, I can't imagine how helpless the victims and their families feel.
UPDATE: The case was solved! th-cam.com/video/dQWNE5i1Nik/w-d-xo.html
I love watching your videos !!!
HOW does a judge grant IMMUNITY to that man for shooting a woman in the face five times....he really got away with murder (even tho she survived, she obviously she wasn’t meant to).
Have they taken the DNA from the stamp to match to the case? Why not do a familial trace?
How awful for her family, to not know would be the worst. Rodney seems like a good guy that needs answers too.
It's kind of surreal that with DNA, crimes haven't been solved. It seems as though somebody related would have done a genealogy thing.
P.S. Where did you come up with Theda's name? I have a relative (now deceased) that was named Theda. It's not very common
Did they ever check into the guy that was flirting with her at the beer party and also at the burger place? I would think he could be a suspect.
I think the burglar could've been responsible for Carla's death. When the police came to his residence, he knew her name and was wondering when they were coming for him. When he was talking to the police, he broke down crying so he could've been the one who did it. But then again, it's very common for people to confess to murders they didn't commit, all for the attention.
This case is finally solved on Sept 21st, 2020. They made an arrest and he confessed..
I went to school with her.
Did you know her...? 0-0
I know two cases might be interesting for you. The unknown woman case from Rahway NJ. And the murders of Joanne Delardo and Doreen Carlucci Colonia NJ.
Wait, I’m from New Jersey and I’ve never heard of either of those
@@koolkitty108 Darlene and Joanne were killed in1974 they were from Colonia. There’s a well written article written on it. They were the last victims of a serial killer. He was awaiting trial on a case from Atlantic Highlands. There’s a good (small)book on the unknown woman in Rahway. She was killed in the 1800s.
OMG they caught him!!!! You have to do an update!
Of course I ordered from Casetify just before I watch this!! 🤣🙄🤦🏻♀️
As always nicely done! Another beautiful soul gone too soon.
Quick question, would you ever create a personal TH-cam channel? Or will you always stick with unsolved cases ?
Another great job Gabby!. You need your own Podcast!.
Ya know something cool is the fact that you said, you believe this case can be solved and like a month after you posted this the DNA evidence indeed helped solve the case, finally 🥺
Sending love to Carla's family... Sending love to you as well, Gaby. Thanks for the video
I wonder, do they have the DNA today? I wait impatiently for your next video! Love it!
In love your content! I have been a fan for years but wanted to let you know!🤗❤️
I’m so happy this is now solved! In the last couple days they got a DNA match!
Hello from the DFW metroplex, my aunt lives in Benbrook 😳 I’ve never heard of this case!
MORE KITTY FILM TIME OMFG
An arrest has been made in this case. He has confessed
Why did Rodney go to her family's house? First thing I would've done is gone into the bowling alley and called the police...
Wow, this case (like all) but especially this one really broke my heart for all involved. I sincerely hope this is solved soon, especially with the advances in DNA.
I don’t think TH-cam is notifying me when you post because I completely missed this one and didn’t realize it until you posted the update video! But I just wanted to say you covered this so well. I always love your videos!
Glen McCurley confessed to Carla’s murder. I remember this case. I lived in the DFW area back then.
So glad there’s a Hell!
I love these videos
Oh wow! I am listening to this today February 16th and its the anniversary of this young life being taken. So sad!!!
... and that's why I lock my car doors the moment I get in. And check on the rareview mirror for anyone hiding in the backsits lol.
I feel like a lot of serial killers, rapists, and murderer where really active in the 70s, it was the decade of freedom and everybody felt safe. It's so sad that now we're so aware of the sickness in our society that we can't trust each other, that we have to be scared of walking alone at night or sitting in your car with doors unlocked. A friend of mine was robbed in her car, just few seconds to me to get her, all because she has her doors unlocked. It's madness.
And it's even worst what Rodney and Karla's family had to go through all these years with no answer. I agree with you: we're just a step away to solved this, and I hope it'll be soon ❤️
Glad you do that. Consider checking the backseat before getting in. By the time you dscover someone is back there you're kinda at their mercy already. They can reach forward, you can't reach back, and it takes a little time and effort to get out of a car again
@@annedavis3340 yes you're right, I'll check from the window before gettin in 😱
@@vanessasherbet glad to hear :)
My driving instructor (a guy) and my self-defense teacher (also a guy) both recommended it separately
it’s just been solved. DNA matched. Glen Samuel McCurley, he’s been interviewed due to owning the gun that matched on a magazine found on crime scene but police bought his alibi.
What about the pubic hair they found? That should have DNA? Nanolabs?
When Gabby uploads I’m just like...😍😍😍😍
Now that we have this guy we have to check anyting anyting any piece of evidence for Becky. Those crimes are too similar a year apart found in the Cold war pretty young girl they're most likely done by the same person. The guys old now hopefully he'll just confess I find it very hard to believe that it's notthe same person who committed both crimes and now that we have someone for one of them then obviously well anyway but it's people who falsely confess or police browbeat in to falsely confessing that LOL I screw things up but hopefully Becky's case will be solved soon. Everything tells me the same person
Love and respect to all Carla's family and friends. Love Theda- I also have a black cat.
Omg catto 😍😍
How about trying familial DNA?
This happened in my hometown I went to western hills high school
Still binging your older content bc your approach is one of a kind ❤
Why beat her if she was drugged? Thease people are so sick. U have to wonder the relationsnhip between them nd there mothers. Pure hatered.
She was a beautiful girl. Any insight on the giy who was flirting with her at the party and burger place?
Sends to me like the killers was after Carla Maybe he had something against her or all woman in General Because what the killer did to her he had to have hated woman I feel so bad for Rodney and her family I hope they catch the killer and justice can be served .
have they used DNA genealogy yet to match with relative of the murderer?
I've talked with a woman recently who was Carla's neighbor and she is still haunted by what happened to her. This lady was only 12 when it happened and she said that she was paranoid going anywhere in Fort Worth because of this case. Hope someone finally finds the missing piece of the puzzle to finally get justice for Carla after all these years.
hello I like your channel
Side by side the word...Worth, looks identical to me.
The killer of Carla Walker has been arrested in Fort Worth, Tx. Hes been living a normal life like nothing for 45 years. You can run but you can't hide.
God bless Carla's family.
This case was solved via DNA in 2020. What should be done for any unsolved case that has DNA we re- test and we use the direct DNA route, the genealogical DNA route etc. and we should do this from most recent to the oldest case IMO to minimize threat level and (hopefully) maximize jail time - thoughts? Or should we go from oldest first ( say starting in the 70s?)
@@jmslaforzadeldestino4943 I did an update video regarding it.
