The Slaying of Teresa Branch Part 1 of 2: Into the Night

When high school senior Teresa Branch’s car broke down about a half a mile from her home in Arlington, Texas, she began jogging to the house to get her father’s help. But Teresa never made it home. A while later, the friend she left to watch over the car phoned Teresa’s parents. They all began trying to find the 18-year-old but were having no luck. That’s when a Branch Family friend alerted them to police activity nearby. Early, teenagers had found a body in the parking lot of a neighborhood Baptist Church.
