"Nobody Knows... Most Notably the People Who Should"

1982. Ohio. The Turnpike. Cold. Wet.

A drunk driver swerves past an Ohio State Trooper. The trooper lights up the hatchback and a routine DUI stop is underway.

Then… well, that’s the last time “routine” appears in this series.

Part of this story is inexplicable. None of it is avoidable. If, at any point, you feel it’s unbelievable, remember, it’s entirely real, documented, and unable to escape its own self inflicted dark humor. This is different.

You won’t forget this story. Just… because you won’t.

On top of that, this is a real, ongoing investigation. So you might as well jump in.
