In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles Donnie and Dale speak with Mike Elam, author of Buford Pusser The Other Story. In his book, Mike challenges the heroic portrayal of Sheriff Buford Pusser, presenting a darker, more complex narrative based on his research into FBI files, autopsy reports, and interviews with those who knew Pusser. The book questions the official accounts of Pusser's life, particularly the ambush that killed his wife, Pauline, and suggests that Pusser may have been part of the problem at the state line rather than the solution.

In July of 1995. 13-year-old Thad Phillips had fallen asleep in his living room watching a movie. Suddenly, he awoke to the feeling of someone lifting him up and carrying him away - initially he thought maybe it was his dad, bringing him upstairs to bed. But it wasn't.
