Buford Pusser: The Lying Lawman | 238

Buford Pusser was a small-town Tennessee sheriff who conned an entire country into believing he was a hero.

But behind the legend lies a trail of abuse, corruption, and a grisly murder that raised questions everyone in Buford’s orbit had been too scared to ask. And when the Hollywood shine wears off, the lie people wanted to believe becomes harder to protect.
