"We have plenty of cases to cover, do not make more" That was really funny

Short answer: Probably not. Longer answer: Moonshiners, even in the early days of the practice, were rather well known in their local communities. To the point that everyone and their brother in the community would know who was the moonshiners. Meaning that some rando kid wandering into a moonshiner's still, even if it's from someone outside of the community, wouldn't warrant a murder. What point would there be, from the moonshiner's perspective, of drawing even more attention to the surrounding area?

@Kywaterdawg71

23 күн бұрын

Come to say much the same. Anyone thinking moonshining is some clandestine programming had obviously never been in the area one cooking. And as you said, the thought a three year old stumbling onto a shine operation and being murdered for it verges on absurd.

@KibuFox

19 күн бұрын

@@Kywaterdawg71 Yeah. Honestly, if a kid had stumbled across the operation, then the moonshiners would be more likely to help the kid find their parents than do anything to them. Furthermore, no moonshiner 'buries' their mash underground. Though the average moonshiner at that time was lucky if they had an 8th grade education, they also weren't stupid by any means. Burying your mash would allow all manner of animals or other things to fall into the mash. That'd contaminate the mash, and destroy any future 'cook' you would have. It doesn't hurt matters that putting the mash in the ground would mess up the temperatures needed for it to ferment. Lastly, it's worth noting that after alcohol had been boiled off the mash, the corn that was left over wasn't simply thrown away. That corn would be fed to hogs or cattle. So again, putting it in the ground makes no sense, as then it'd just be more work to get it out into sacks to carry to use for feed. There is just so much wrong with that whole theory, that it sounds more like someone who had only a small amount of knowledge about moonshining, and they let their imagination run wild.

Some more info on the area now, This area is stricken with poverty and people relied on cheap booze to take them out of that reality for a while it made it themselves for some pocket money and to give out during holidays. Now days, the tourism seems to be making it worse, not better. Now instead of money not coming in, it just gets taken by the top players while the rest of us are priced out of our homes. At least when there was a lack of money in the economy the area was cheap to live in. The people that serve the tourism industry can’t feed or shelter their kids and social services are quick to tear families apart in this area when a water pump breaks or a storm blows down the shed. Need done time to buy a new pump or clean up the mess? Need a couple of days? Too bad. You lose your kids. If anyone cares, the mayor and governor really loves the tourism. If y’all tell them they’re doing a crap job, something might change. It would have to be a lot of people threatening to boycott the state but I’m sure after a while something would change. We are having a drug crisis now because of the same reason shining took off. People can’t support themselves.

I was interested in Paulides' material, but it didn't take too long to see his subtext and pick up on how he was coloring his stories to fit his conclusions. So he's helpful for some of the research that he's done, but you have to take it with a grain of salt.

The “my shot killed him” thing is psychologically. It’s a guilty thing, not a logic one.

Some thoughts on cause of death, least important aspect of the case. I'm happy to provide citations if anyone wants to go down the spider/snake/poison rabbit hole after me. There aren't really spider species with medically significant venom in that area-particularly not ones which are inclined to bite. What does track for cause of death would be a snake bite, of which there are several very well camouflaged and quite defensive species hanging out. Some of those species share characteristics and behavior with snake species that are safe (enough) to bother. There are plenty of attractive looking plants and fungi which show up in the smokies as well, including some species which are safe to eat cooked but not raw-a differentiation a hungry toddler might not make on his own.

I grew up in the Smokies so far back in the woods we didn't get the Saturday Night Grand Ole Opry until Tuesday morning. Your break down was great with the exception of the spider bite. Most likely a snake bite. March sees snakes out sunning themselves during the day and will find a warm spot(hollow log) in the evening and night. In my 70 years in these hills I've never seen a spider of any kind that could kill even a small rodent much less a healthy 3 year old. Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your vids.

I participated in a field research class in the Cosby area of Tennessee so from an ecology perspective I can offer a bit of context. Venomous spiders in this region are way more rare than people think-- especially in March. March can get very cold, and most cold-blooded animals in this climate overwinter one way or another. Spiders seek warmth in places like sheds so you're much more likely to face them on a homestead than out in the wilderness at this time. There is the case for venomous snakes like diamond backs, but they are likewise going to brumate unless its an especially warm March. They recommend inexperienced hikers of the smokies come at latest mid May because that is when venomous snakes start to emerge from brumation. That isn't to say spiders and snakes don't exist in March they most definitely do, but they're going to be sluggish. A noisy three year old is not likely to catch any of these animals by surprise nor are they likely to capture the animal in much a situation where biting is its first response. Its still very possible, especially since he was found in a log where these critters might be hiding. But losing little Abe to exposure is significantly more likely.

Try the Mountain Press, Sevier county’s newspaper or the Knoxville News Sentinel which is the largest in the area and based out of Knox county. The Knox county library may have papers older than the sentinel. Lastly, the area of Cosby could swallow half the world today and people would never be found. Back then it would be far worse, but the people, even kids, would have been FAR more capable than 99.9% of people are today when it comes to survival and navigating the land.

Also, I found out that star sapphire ring and matching pendant were gifts (from her parents?) and were found to be in the possession of a female classmate who never returned them to her parents. Trenny's case has left me completely confused by the contradictory information to the point that now I am wondering if she even existed at all.

​@@charissimpson235 Ah yeah, the Great Grey Man! We're hoping to get up Ben Macdui, if the weather allows 😄

Aiden, your cold opens always get the exact same reaction out of me, every time I purse my lips, smirk, and pull my chin to the left xD

The idea of the Moonshiners opening fire in the direction of sounds they hear is very funny to me. Unless these guys are shooting their guns 24/7, I doubt they're just shooting at random noises they hear in the woods.

You should name your line of Bunker Branding "Debunker Branding"

Good coverage on this story; it's not one that I've heard before. Thank you! I also enjoyed the history section.

Thank you for the great content!

Shine can be good or it can be bad, it also depends what you're trying to make. A lot of people are essentially making everclear, which has no character. Homemade doesn't mean bad.

Thank you for your research. I’m always skeptical when someone repeats a Paulides story. He seems to omit a lot of information in his story telling.

I'm with you on DP & going from impressed to suspect 🤔

Love today's format!

Putting parks under the jurisdiction of the Department of Agriculture doesn’t make much sense today. But, back then when there were so few few parks, it probably prevented duplication of early environmental studies, such as hydrology, soil composition and other analyses.

Glad to see the history segment return

Great video guys, keep up the hard work!

Wait you said June 14th and then July😂

Keep up the great work ✌🏻... Philly love

Loving your content brother.

This video was great, thank you for all of the information!

I used to be a Dave fan also. In fact I bought 6 of his books. Then I saw that he included cases that were clearly not of the "missing 411" type and could easily be explained. The last straw was when he constantly says he is being shadow banned and demonitized and when I commented to let him know there were ads in his videos and he might want to check on that, he bans me from his channel. I think the guy is dishonest and has been drinking his own Kool-Aid for too long..

The last few times I browsed through his comment section, he seemed hell-bent on pointing out all the subscribers that claimed they were unsubbed from his channel. Some even stated they were getting notifications, but were unsubbed, which is impossible I do believe.

I find the idea of moonshiner's firing at a sound very strange. Know your target and dont waste a shot

I love you and these videos! Can’t wait for the merch. Im an amateur research sleuth myself and spend my days researching unsolved murders. It’s my passion :) and these videos are like crack for me ha ha

I have so many issues with the missing 411 mindset . It is absolutely strange that disappearances and deaths in the national parks aren't bigger stories. There are definitely mysterious circumstances. However, DP manipulates evidence, omits pertinent facts, and relies on case retellings rather than primary sources. Even newspapers should be considered faulty sources. Police reports are more reliable. DP''s stories are little better than fantasy and wish fulfillment. Scary stories to tell by a campfire, at best. Leaving out that the missing biy was found is not an oversight or negligence, it is blatant deception to further his agenda.

I have come to really look forward to new Lore Lodge videos. I'm tired of rewatching all the old one 😂

Very interesting that this video has some sources listed and not a lot of older videos.

Finally..was missing the lore from lore lodgr👏👏👏

Honestly, I was wondering where the history segments of the videos had gone - I'm very glad they have made a triumphant return!

I agree with you about Paulides, he doesn't invent evidence but he frequently hyperfocuses on specific points which he is clearly using to misdirect readers. That's as good as lying, in my book. The way he interfered with the DeOrr Kunz case is especially evil.

❤ Awesome as always thanks guys always enjoy the history segment it's my favorite!

I love the history segments, it was always my favorite topic in school.

This has to be one of the best lore lodge intros LOL

I don’t really watch you anymore but congrats on 500k! Insane.

Underrated story channel

Well, he could have gotten stuck in the log and suffocated or a snake could have bitten him. Fallen logs, hollow or otherwise, are places that snakes like to congregate around.

What?! David Paulides adding or leaving out information nooooooooooo you must me mistaken 🤣🤣

I absolutely love the history segment!

...In all your videos, not just this one.

Well, it has been my experience that dogs are afraid of larger predators such as bears. However, again, from personal experience, dogs are terrified of large cats even the smallest of the wild cats in this area (bobcats).

A guy in Gatlinburg looked just like you this week!!! Oh wow didn’t expect the story to be about Tennessee, I had my message typed before you started.

I literally discovered this channel from the Unsubscribe Podcast. Upon looking, I watched the Killdozer video a week ago. However, after watching these guys on Unsubscribe, I'm absolutely subscribed now!

Cosby native here! Crazy to see our little town on your page!!

A sal with cubs is not afraid of dogs or people and will fight aggressively

It happened in March so that gives reasonable cause. January the Cubs are born around March or April sow and cubs would be outside.A three year old might just walk right up to a cub.

David P and various other commentators should really look at applying Occam's Razor concept.

As a member of a family who were known for the alcohol they produced, I feel that I should mention that there is a difference between moonshine, and corn liquor. Moonshine makes a great fuel for agriculture machinery, corn liquor is slightly sweet, with a pleasant sweet corn flavor. So moonshine is somewhere between 80 to 100 proof, and corn liquor is around 40 or so. Most people who were in the business, either did not drink, or only drank corn liquor. Think of moonshine as a concentrate, meant to be turned into mixed drinks or fake gin, usually sold up north at the time. Locally the trade was controlled by the local sheriff and his brother, the local federal judge, along with their partner, Al Capone. I live in the low country close to Charleston sc. Capone used Charleston as a port to get to Cuba. He was even a silent partner in many local businesses, an example is the largest hotel/cat house in Berkeley county.

Not me trying to figure out how to get to PA from WI to get a t-shirt and bring you chocolate milk 🥴🤣 Great video! I remember my first run-in with moonshine when I went to college in Southern Illinois. Tasted like how I imagine ethanol tastes.
