  • Buford at Pusser

    Big fan of the podcast I listen to you guys at work. I want to talk about the Buford T Pusser episode. I feel like the time and money spent on these cases should be spent on solving current cases. I know older cases deserve to be reviewed. Am I wrong for thinking this. Plus I from Nebraska do you have any Nebraska cases in the works
