365 Days of Texas True Crime: Girl Unknown
I read the newspaper everyday, but not the one that comes out daily about what s going on right now. I read newspaper archives. I sift through stories of missing people, murders, bombings, and unsolved deaths.
I came across a story with not much information to go along with it a few years ago that seemed so perplexing and sad that I made some notes on it and never forgot about it.

The story was about an attractive young women who was found face down in the Roper Motel Pool. They figured she was about 19 years old. In the paper the authorities were asking for help finding the male companion she was with at the motel. The motel manager reported that the young woman and and an unidentified man had checked into the motel about 2 p.m. There were witnesses that had reported hearing screams from the pool area. They ran to see what the trouble was to find the woman floating in the pool.
