Eric Anderson Speaks to Newsweek About Audrii Cunningham Murder Case

Eric Anderson recently spoke to Newsweek about the likelihood of a murder conviction in the case of Audrii Cunningham, an 11-year-old girl in Texas who went missing on her way to school and was found dead on Tuesday, February 20, 2024.

42-year-old Don Steven McDougal has been charged with capital murder as police say his car was used to pick up Cunningham on the morning of her disappearance. But Eric explains to Newsweek why a conviction is unlikely without a confession or further evidence:

“If the spotting of the car is the only reason the police are arresting him, it’s pretty weak evidence from the given history. If they interviewed him and he provided more information, that would make sense for an arrest,” Eric notes. “We need to find out if a search warrant was issued and new evidence was found,” he continues.
