The Kilgore Rangerettes Kidnapping

The Kilgore Rangerettes Kidnapping

It started as a normal evening in Longview, Texas. Dana Blair and her daughter Alexa were packing for a trip to the Cotton Bowl, where Alexa was set to perform for the first time as a Kilgore College Rangerette. But when a woman knocked on their door wearing a wig and covering her face with a greeting card, everything changed.

This week, Kristin tells the unbelievable true story of a home invasion and kidnapping driven by drill team drama, Facebook connections, and a shocking grudge. The case would lead police to Nancy Motes, a mother whose obsession with her daughter’s high school dance career escalated into a violent act that no one could have predicted.
