On August 12th, 1967, Buford and Pauline Pusser were ambushed while driving, and Pauline was fatally shot. Buford was shot in the jaw. Buford Pusser was the Sheriff of McNairy County in Tennessee and built a name for himself as tough on crime. He made many enemies, and it was thought that one of these enemies had shot him and killed his wife. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the murder of Pauline Pusser. Buford became a hero figure and vowed to find his wife's killer. The movie, Walking Tall, made Buford a larger-than-life character after it was released in 1973. But many years later, authorities uncovered evidence that pointed straight at Buford Pusser for the murder of his wife, Pauline.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

The late Sheriff Buford Pusser, long celebrated as a fearless lawman and the inspiration for the film Walking Tall, is now believed to have murdered his wife nearly sixty years ago. In Illinois, a jury has convicted former Sangamon County sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson of second-degree murder in the death of Sonya Massey, a Springfield woman who called 911 to report a possible prowler. In Nebraska, a man has pleaded guilty to the murder of a parish priest in a small town north of Omaha. In northeast Ohio, a Cleveland woman has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the fatal stabbing of a three-year-old boy outside a grocery store.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For more than fifty years, the official story stood unchallenged. Modern forensic science is now putting it to the test. In 1967, Sheriff Buford Pusser and his wife, Pauline, were ambushed on a rural Tennessee road, an attack that inspired the basis for the Walking Tall films. In part 2, Sheryl McCollum continues her conversation with Mike Elam, Jason White, Dennis Hathcock, and Danny Cupples as they revisit the physical evidence and confront the inconsistensies that have haunted this case for decades.

The book questions the official accounts of Pusser's life, particularly the ambush that killed his wife, Pauline, and suggests that Pusser may have been part of the problem at the state line rather than the solution.  MIKES LINKS: https://www.amazon.com/BUFORD-PUSSER-Other-Mike-Elam/dp/0578237237?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=A37TND0CZPV1YN https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzKHdKJX76bJaprb09dEBm1tdzrbkbpRy OUR LINKS: https://www.crackhousechronicles.com/ https://linktr.ee/crackhousechronicles https://www.tiktok.com/@crackhousechronicles https://www.facebook.com/crackhousechronicles Check out our MERCH! https://www.teepublic.com/user/crackhousechronicles

His story inspired Walking Tall, a string of sequels, ballads, and generations of folk-hero worship. But behind the headlines, beneath the scars, there's a different story. In this episode of the Curator135 Podcast, we dive deep into the life, myth, and legacy of Buford Pusser—from his early days as a wrestler, to bloody shootouts with the State Line Mob, to the tragic death of his wife, Pauline.

"Was the legendary sheriff Buford Pusser a hero—or a killer hiding behind Hollywood myth?"In this jaw-dropping episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray unravel a decades-old cold case that inspired not one, but two Hollywood films—and may have been built on a lie.True Crime Turner takes center stage as KT dives into the 1967 murder of Pauline Pusser, wife of Tennessee sheriff Buford Pusser. Once hailed as a vigilante icon and immortalized in the cult classic Walking Tall, new forensic evidence suggests Buford may have staged the entire ambush and murdered his wife in cold blood. The twist? Blood spatter outside the car and a suspicious close-range wound on Buford's cheek contradict his heroic tale.The crew explores how this revelation shakes the foundation of a story that spawned a 1973 film starring Joe Don Baker and a 2004 remake with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Ben hilariously speculates, “This is going to get The Rock canceled!” while Skin wonders if the truth was buried until Joe Don Baker's passing earlier this year.

The crew kicks off with birthday banter, fantasy football chaos, and the wild fallout from a draft-night stream. From there, things spiral into an offbeat but fascinating ride: a deep dive into the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation's shocking claim that legendary sheriff Buford Pusser may have killed his own wife, despite being immortalized in the Walking Tall movies as a folk hero. The discussion unpacks government waste, media narratives, and whether reopening decades-old cold cases is justice or just theater. But it doesn't stop there. The hosts veer into the eerie with Italy's famous “blinking mummy,” preserved for over a century, sparking debates about embalming, vampires, and occult symbolism in pop culture. Toss in a detour through Habsburg inbreeding, odd birth defects like “lobster claw” feet, and plenty of sharp humor, and you've got a Friday night hangout that's as unpredictable as it is entertaining. This episode embodies OnlyLands at its finest, irreverent, curious, and unafraid to poke fun at the absurd while unpacking history, mystery, and everything in between.

You might not think that we ever get stuck for movies to pick for the show. What with Hollywood alone having been making films for over a century. Giving us a library of media you probably couldn't watch in your lifetime without sacrificing your personal life and a significant portion of sleep. But that does happen and then we hear about an actor's passing and it reminds us of their work. We have Walking Tall(1973). The late and sort of great Joe Don Baker stars in this somewhat autobiographical film based on the real life Buford Pusser.

In the aftermath of DIRTY HARRY, there were plenty of films looking to get in on the semi-legal vigilante craze. One of the most successful of these was Phil Karlson's WALKING TALL, starring the great, recently departed Joe Don Baker as real-life Tennessee lawman Buford Pusser, who was all too willing to tell the world how he beat the corruption out of McNairy County with a fencepost. Except that he was kind of full of hot air, and the whole thing is - at least for Ian - one of the most nakedly fascist films we've ever watched for the show!
