Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders

Paper Ghosts is back for its fifth season. The new installment, “Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders” will take listeners back to 1983, when two teens were found murdered, execution-style, on a hill in Weatherford, Texas. The investigation was botched with rumors and speculation running rampant throughout the town and into the surrounding areas. Over the next 42 years, law enforcement got close to finding answers but always backed away.

Michelle “Shelly” Cauliflower, 14, and Vincent Tejerina, Jr., 16, were out on their first car date but failed to come home. The next morning, Vincent’s father found the teens shot dead inside Vincent’s car. Their deaths were just two in a series of local teen murders, strange “suicides” and “accidents” which still need to be accounted for and explained.  

Veteran investigative journalist and host M. William Phelps has spent several years putting together a case and uncovering answers families have been waiting on for decades. Over 9 episodes, the podcast will dig into more than 100 hours of Phelps’ completed interviews from scores of witnesses and experts including law enforcement and anonymous sources no one has spoken to before, putting together a case so unfathomable it has become almost hard to believe, cracking open a narrative of what likely happened and who is responsible.

Days after their engagement came a devastating allegation that Kenny abused her 9-year-old son.   To Cindy, the facts behind the accusation didn’t add up. She believed the claims had less to do with reality, and more to do with retribution by her ex-husband.   As the allegation tore her family apart, Cindy faced an impossible choice: stand by her child or stand by what she believed to be the truth.   Her decision led to years of frustrating court battles and a war over what really happened.   In the third season of Burden of Guilt, one family’s painful unraveling raises difficult questions about loyalty, manipulation, and what happens when the people you love no longer agree on what is true.
