In this episode we tell the tale of Billy Dean Anderson, a man whose life took a drastic turn, leading him from being an artistic youth minister to the FBI's most wanted list. Join Steve Gilly and Rod Mullins as they delve into the life of Anderson, born in Fentress County, Tennessee, and how his path of crime unfolded. From armed robbery to multiple escapes from prison, Anderson's story is a gripping narrative of a man who lived on the edge, yet found solace in his art.
