Texas Standard For November 30, 2017
A one way ticket back to Texas for Rex Tillerson? A new report details plans for a major cabinet shakeup by year’s end. We’ll have the latest. And: She was a 25-year-old school teacher and a former beauty queen, found dead in April of 1960. Her case was never solved. More than a half-century later, a media circus descends on McAllen as opening arguments get underway in the murder trial against a former priest, the last person to see her alive. Also: A case of failure to launch? Why’s progress been so slow at the much ballyhooed SpaceX Texas launch site? Plus: What’s in a name? A whole lot more than most, if the name is maverick. Those stories and so much more today on the Texas Standard:
