Summary

Episode 3, Travis Stay, the Man in Yellow, examines the movements and actions of Travis Stay and his friends during the weekend of Joel Lovelien’s murder in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Stay, who was seen in a lion costume that night, became the central suspect in the case and was later tried for Joel’s murder. In December 2008, a jury found him not guilty. This episode traces his timeline, explores the events leading up to the killing, and revisits the question of what really happened outside the Broken Drum Bar. Intro and outro music by HandTurner (https://handturner.bandcamp.com) and Wowza in Kalamazoo (https://wowzainkalamazoo.bandcamp.com/).
