Family says Dallas man was catfished and lured to Houston to be killed
His family says the Dallas man was lured to Houston after he thought he met a woman in an online chat room. Once he got here, he was killed.
Yep, a real bad area. You have to know that area and keep your head on swivel. Gang infested, drugs, prostitution and jackers are synonymous with that area.first of all - where he met her is a prostitution hotspot - a bad spot

So much goes on there that it is possible his murder and planned hook-up might not be related. It is possible he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and became a victim of the random senseless violence that happens around there.
Sad, in a number of ways.
You are saying that South Main "was" the place? It is not like that now is it? I thought they had cleaned South Main up.South Main was that place
They've built 3-4 "Diamond Inn or Tweety Inn" motels on the south side of 610 within the past 5 years
That is the same thing I was thinking.If he was in that area he was looking for some sex. To drive from Dallas to Houston. Also....there may be more to this story and dead men tell no tales.
In the 80s when those old motor hotels were rotting away it was the hot spot by far. Growing up Main was the route we took into Downtown and those old motels started around Willowbend and kept on going until you left town. Chief Inn, Rode Inn, etc. When it dried up prostitutes moved in.
They bulldozed alot of them for townhomes, apartments and other businesses but its popping back up in another form. They've built 3-4 "Diamond Inn or Tweety Inn" motels on the south side of 610 within the past 5 years
Good memory,...those motels were strung along main all the way to Braes Bayou.
Recall, the Republican convention came to the Dome in the 1984 which caused the city leaders to all of a sudden care about all that riff-raff on main street. Main street began to change for the better at that point.
South Main is not like that anymore. Especially from 610 going towards downtown. Its pretty cleaned up right now.
A guy who comes in the barbershop told us he was in Birmingham one time and went to go meet this chick he met on backpage. He said that when he got to the spot to hit her some dude was there. He said luckily he had his pistol on him. He said dude asked him who he was and he replied a ninja who don't mind pulling this trigger on this pistol. He said dude backed down and he still smashed the chick and got the hell headed..... Getting some snatch ain't that serious

We have all done some wreck less things to get some nookie.
I was getting ready to post that when I saw Centre Drive. when meeting a person you have never met before, you may want to learn about the area. Yes, that is known as the Bissonnette Stretch. On a nice weekend night, It's like a Hooker conference. It's nothing to see 25 - 50 women walking about a 2 mile loop. The Centre is on the return Loop. Don't ask me how I know. LOL.first of all - where he met her is a prostitution hotspot - a bad spot
