Talking about trauma isn't always great for people. It's not always the best thing. About a third of people who are traumatized as kids feel worse when they talk about it, get very dysregulated.

Along the central Texas plains, teens are dying. Suicides that don't make sense. Strange accidents. and brutal murders. In what seems to be a plot ripped straight out of Breaking Bad.

Drugs, alcohol, trafficking of people. There are people out there that absolutely know what happened.

Listen to Paper Ghosts, The Texas Teen Murders on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, so when we left off with the story of Daryl Gates, it was 1965, and he had become one of the youngest inspectors in Los Angeles police history. He's in like his mid-30s at this point, and he's overseeing all of the patrol officers in Watts. And that is 1965 and Watts, as I said, should start the dun-dun-dun music in your head. And we're about to talk about why. Because on the evening of Wednesday, August 7th, 1965, a 21-year-old black man named Marquette Fry is driving home drunk with his stepbrother Arnold. So these are two guys driving a little bit buzzed, which isn't great, but it's 1965.
Robert Evans 4:02
The cops aren't sober on the road. Nobody is. It's the 60s, right? There's no seatbelts. There's barely laws. Having a road soda is the most normal thing. I'm not saying it's good. I'm just saying they are not outliers here. We just talked about how the chief of police couldn't drive himself because he was too drunk at all times, right? Just trying to really set up that this is not like a weird thing.
