    My father was murdered at a sales meeting in Conroe at a time share company for a new resort there in 1977. It happened in front of 40 witnesses at the meeting. The guy went into another salesman's office and took out a .22 handgun that was in his desk. The guy pled guilty to involuntary manslaughter and never spent a day in jail. I was 19, married and had just had my second Son. My family was from Pittsburgh PA, and the murderer was a local in Conroe,and He had powerful connections.

    I live on the lake Conroe and never have heard of Crater lake. Should be a neat place to visit next free day I have for a dive and vlog. I remember when I was little however my neighbor did snag a body while fishing in Conroe and I'm guessing it was at crater lake. That said all bodies of water hide secrets so that little lake is nothing unique. Lastly a message for Fox26, dont be hating and fear mongering on witchcraft, lots of peeps are Wiccan or Pagan in Conroe and the greater Houston area. I myself practice Shugendo and meditate at the lake to conect with nature and my sister is Wiccan and used to do the same there as well.
