Marilyn Reese Sheppard was found dead in her bedroom on July 4, 1954, and the crime scene contains evidence that Sam is the culprit. Significantly, she was brutally hit twenty-seven times with a…

exemplified in “The Hospital Blues You Gave to Me” by The Gospel Youth.

“Peyton are you ready to go catch a mamagal?” is just one of the many things I am asked from dad when the spawn is about to begin.
