Description

Over 19 days in March of 2018, five package bombs were mysteriously placed or mailed to random locations in and around Austin, Texas — killing two people and seriously injuring another five.

During these mysterious, terrifying attacks, hundreds of thousands of tourists from all over the world would descend on the city for the annual South by Southwest festival, prompting as many federal law enforcement to respond to these bombings as did during the Boston Marathon attacks. On the front lines of it all is the Austin Bomb Squad, who has never experienced anything quite like this in their department’s history.

This is the thrilling, true story of the 19 days of terror that settled over one of the fastest growing cities in the world at one of its busiest times told by the law enforcement, victims, journalists, and residents who witnessed it.

The nephew of Esperanza “Hope” Herrera will drive across the country back to Austin when he hears what happened to his aunt, taking us inside his psyche and the aftermath of the bombing from his perspective. Meanwhile, as all the victims are minorities who have been targeted at their homes on the East side of Austin, Texas, the media and authorities begin to speculate — could these bombings be hate crimes?

Ten days after the mysterious first bomb, another package bomb detonates, killing 17 year-old music prodigy Draylen Mason and critically injuring his mother. As the Austin bomb squad tries to make sense of the scene and the FBI begins their investigation, a third package bomb goes off just a few miles away, injuring 70 year-old Esperanza “Hope” Herrera.

When a package mysteriously explodes on the front porch of a suburban home in Northeast Austin, killing homeowner and father Anthony Stephan House, authorities are mystified. Bombings of this type are incredibly rare and law enforcement has – at best – flimsy theories about motives and suspects.

On March 2, 2018, an anonymous and deadly package bomb detonated on the doorstep of a home in Austin, Texas. Then, another was discovered, and another. Each one a little more sophisticated than the last, and each target seemingly more and more random, igniting confusion and fear across the city. With just days before hundreds of thousands of people would arrive for the South by Southwest Festival, and no leads, the city’s bomb squad faced a challenge unlike anything else in their department’s history. This is the thrilling, true story of the 19 days of terror that settled over one of the fastest growing cities in the world at one of its busiest times told by the law enforcement, victims, journalists, and residents who witnessed it.

I'm loving the idea of your show; also well produced. However, maybe consider making longer episodes or less advertising? I'm wanting more info per episode rather than multiple episodes. Especially due to the long credits at the end of each episode as well. Anyhow, great job. Just a couple of ideas to make it even better

Richard exhibits clear symptoms of an autism spectrum disorder. You can’t use the fact that he doesn’t have an emotional response as evidence.

Being uncomfortable with facts about one community or another doesn't change them. And this lady is smart enough to know that. Minimizing or hiding those facts is disgusting, dishonest and disingenuous. And potentially dangerous. She knows that too. Instead of excusing or dismissing antisocial, violent proclivities, demand they change. Not that everyone else accepts and ignores the facts. No matter how much you lie or ignore a fact, it doesn't change.

It's not clear why the entire family hates Richard. The host seems very intolerant and judgemental. His crimes so far- he loves his home town, organised a festival, worked at a radio station, didn't get married and takes care of his elderly mother...so he must be a murderer? Its ridiculous. Maybe later episodes will make things clearer but right now the family seem like jerks.
