In Episode 11, State of Texas v. Linda Anita Carty, Part 1, Lisa and Kyle looked at the May, 2001, plot hatched by Linda Carty to save her common-law marriage by stealing her neighbor, Joana Rodriguez’s baby. She recruited drug dealers/thugs to commit a home invasion, promising them a large cache of drugs and money. She also made preparations to take the baby from Joana’s womb, or to steal him from a hospital. Carty, a compulsive liar, couldn’t keep her mouth shut and, after Joana and her newborn son were kidnapped, a neighbor who saw Carty at the complex the night of the kidnapping pointed police in her direction. Joana’s body was found in the trunk of a car rented for Carty by her daughter and Joana’s newborn son, Ray, was found in the daughter’s car, thankfully unharmed. We’ll talk about the evidence against Carty, her 2002 conviction for capital murder and death sentence, her direct appeal and her initial state post-conviction claims.
