What’s next for woman accused in the kidnapping of Austin mom, baby? Legal analyst weighs in

HOUSTON – When it comes to solving a murder, KPRC 2 legal analyst Brian Wice says more often than not law enforcement is attempting to beat a small window. TIMELINE: Here are the key events in the Austin mom strangulation case“We don’t know anything other than the cause of death. We don’t know where it happened, we don’t know how it necessarily happened, other than the fact that this poor woman died from manual strangulation," Wice said. Once murder charges are ultimately filed in the case, Wice says the county where the murder took place should be the venue for a murder trial. However, important to note that no murder charges have been filed nearly six days after the discovery of Broussard’s body.
