AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Police in Texas say they are looking into “potential investigative lapses” following the arrest of a convicted child murderer who is now in jail on two other murder charges. Raul Meza Jr. walked out of a Texas prison in 1993 after serving about a decade for killing an 8-year-old girl. Thirty years later, Meza has been charged with murder in the deaths of his roommate in May and a woman in 2019. Both killings happened in Austin, where investigators say they are now looking into as many as ten other unsolved cases in which Meza might be connected.
