Yogurt Shop Murders

Memorial for yogurt shop murder victims
By: News 8 Austin Staff

 
It's been 11 years since four young girls were murdered at a yogurt shop in North Austin.

On the anniversary Friday night, family and friends gathered to remember the teenagers who died at the I Can't Believe It's Yogurt! shop.

Amy Ayers, Eliza Thomas, and sisters Sara and Jennifer Harbison were all shot and killed instantly.

Last September, Michael Scott, 28, was convicted of capital murder in the death of the Amy Ayers, the youngest girl.

Scott was sentenced to life in prison.

Another accomplice, Robert Springsteen, was sentenced to death in June 2001.

A third and final trial for Maurice Pierce will start next spring.

Online Poll

The City of Austin plans to have the Nueces Bike Boulevard opened by late spring. The boulevard would be a multi-use path where car traffic is discouraged. How do you feel about this?
I think this is a great idea, we need more roads like this
I think it needs more public input
I don’t think this is a good idea
