"Family Outraged by Police Handling of Texas Woman's Killing"
The family of Gloria Lofton, who was found dead in her Texas home in 2019, is expressing outrage over the police investigation of her killing after it was revealed that key forensic evidence linking the suspect, Raul Meza Jr., to her death was overlooked. The family discovered a note identifying Meza at Lofton’s home, which was not turned over to the police at the time. Meza, who allegedly confessed to Lofton’s killing and others, has a history of violent crimes and is currently offering a plea agreement for Lofton's and another victim's killings. The Austin Police Department has apologized for a DNA error in the case, but the family is furious over the oversight and lack of communication from authorities.
