Josh Clark and Chuck Bryant

He had the kind of money for a criminal in the 1960s in Skidmore, Missouri.

Yeah.

Which is to say, oh, I hope there's no Skidmoreans.

There's a couple hundred of them.

Well, listening to us.

Yeah, I just assume the whole town listens to us anyway.

They're probably so sick of the story.

But he's the kind of money guy that, like, he always had, like, a few grand in his pocket with a big fat money roll.

Yeah.

Like, that kind of dude.

He was a big guy.

He was, like, 6'2 or 6'3.

Had this sort of, here again, kind of like Jim Jones, men of the time, had this jet black hair and these huge sideburns.

He was imposing, but he picked on people smaller than him.

He picked on women and children and young girls and took advantage of all these people.

And he was arrested and charged at least 21 times without being convicted.

And if you're thinking, like, how in the world does that happen when, like, people know he's committing crimes?

He's getting arrested of committing these crimes.

It's because he had a very, I guess, good, slippery attorney named Richard Gene McFadden, who was supposedly a mob attorney in Kansas City.

And upon their first meeting, he was like, you can't afford me.
