Welcome to another mini-sode of Murder, Myth, and Mystery. I'm one of your hosts, Sarah,

and I'm joined with Mary! Hello, hello. Hi, how's it going? It's good. How you doing?

Good. All right. Let's jump right in. Let's do it. You guys have been a weird week.

An hour of just hanging out and catching up. I'm excited about today's mini, though. So it comes

from our patron, Lindsey Burke. Okay. And you guys, she actually like knew most of the people I'm

going to talk about in the story, except for one of the people, and I'll let you know who it is. But

yeah. So she like grew up with them. Like it's crazy. So I add a lot of like her personal references

and stuff. Okay. I'm excited. Yeah. I saw the email. I never read it because I wanted to be

surprised. Yeah. It's cool. So I'll start today by posing the question. What can three bars of

silver and a box of expensive Cuban cigars get you? Ooh. I think a lot of things personally.

You don't know the right people. Yeah. I know. It's kind of strange combination. Well,

I'm going to tell you about what that can get you. Well, yeah. Dr. Joseph Sunnier was born in

1955. And honestly, not much other information is available about his early life. Like with a lot of

people, you know, he was a graduate of Captain Tree of High School. And he received his bachelors of

science degree from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge in 1976. Graduating summa cum laude

he received his medical degree from the Louisiana State University School of Medicine in

Treesport. Joseph married his high school sweetheart, Becky Galegos when he was just 19 years old

and they later had two sons, Dallas and James and informally adopted a third boy named

Philip Prestwood who Sunnier considered a son. The young family settled in Highland Park

and Joseph, who was now a pathologist, worked at the Southwestern Medical Center.

His son, Dallas and little brother, James, who were born just two years apart,

enjoyed childhoods that were idyllic and yet unremarkable if that makes sense.
