Episode 69: Champ Herren and the Lynching of Dick Cullen

Champ Herren, the OFC's official "renegade newscaster," digs back into the Ozarks archives and unearths the story of Dick Cullen, who murdered his four-year-old step-brother but didn't live to tell about it. Sometimes, people make damned sure that crime doesn't pay. Champ is a master storyteller and a diligent researcher, and he applies his talents to this nearly hundred year old story that could have come from this morning's newspaper. Also included in this essay is another beautiful folksong from Mark Bilyeau and Cindy Woolf, aka the Creek Rocks, and one of Hoss Braden's favorite Ozarks stories. Don't miss this one!
