About this listen
Following years of failed lawsuits, appeals, and parole denials, Meadows was quietly released due to prison overcrowding. In 1993, he resurfaced in Houston, posing as an attorney to lure vulnerable women with false job offers. One woman was raped at knifepoint inside a stolen office space. Another narrowly escaped an attempted assault days later. Houston police arrested Meadows within days.
His parole was revoked. In 1995, a Harris County jury convicted him again and sentenced him to life in prison. He would never leave custody.
This episode traces the lawsuits, manipulation, parole decisions, and ultimate consequences that followed Meadows for decades, while honoring the women whose names should never be overshadowed by the man who harmed them:
Linda Lee Cougot, Dorothy Ann Smith, Eula Mae Miller, Ruth Ann Maynard, and Gloria Sue Green.
Meadows died in prison in 2000. But for Odessa—and for the families—his shadow lingered far longer.
