Christopher Tapp

That marriage, after his release, didn't work out.

And then, in August 2023, as he and his wife Stacy were in the middle of their divorce, she went for a ride in her new Corvette and was killed in a wreck.

This conversation was one month later in Chris's new home, September 2023.

All right, done.

And then the interview was over.

It's been nice talking to you all these years.

It's been amazing, Keith.

An interview that ended with Tapp making a vow.

It's nice to see it to its conclusion.

And so we packed up our cameras, not thinking much of it.

Assuming that's just something Chris said, something we all say from time to time.

I'm done with that.

Never again.

Only this time?

Well.

Six weeks later, Chris was visiting Las Vegas overnight for a car show.

He was rushed to the hospital with serious head injuries.

And a week later, Nate Eaton, news director of the East Idaho News, heard his phone.

It was a Sunday night when I got a text message saying, have you heard that Chris Tapp died?

And I said to my wife, Chris Tapp died.
