Made famous by Hollywood, this small town sheriff supposedly took up his post to fight crime.

After decades of myth-making, the truth behind his many exploits paints a much different picture than what the movie sold us.

This week's episode is The Murder of Pauline Pusser and The Truth About Beaufort, Part 1.

A bump in the nights, your heart fills with dread, probably a murder of who wants you dead,

it could be a ghost, a demon or worse, perhaps you're the victim of a witch's curse,

it's hopeless, you're doomed, You'd call a priest if you could

You'd rather just listen to who

Sinisterhood

I'm gonna kill you

Did you ever hear of this guy?

Well, well, well, I've heard of this movie, but I, honestly, I haven't watched it yet.

I'm waiting to watch The Rock version.

I did not really know the story behind it, though, and that it was based on a true story. And now, a bunch of new

information's come out. And it's wild that, man, sometimes like 30, 40 years can go by. And everybody

just believes this narrative that this person's a hero. And then we're seeing it a lot lately. I was wondering. And then the truth comes out and you're like, this person was the fucking nut the whole time. Right? It's like we were sold a version. And then when you read, oh, I don't know, his own daughter's biography of him. Like what is the true truth that doesn't even really get maybe sane washed for all the rest of us.

You start going, oh, this person was like kind of a menace.

And the question, as you all listen, is like, was he an outlier of a menace?

And we just happened to hear about him.

Or was this kind of stuff like probably going on a lot?

And we didn't have forensic science and thoughtful

district attorneys and stuff being like we need probable cause for this no and just vigilante

justice of people everybody having a gun it was a long time ago especially if you're in law
