Spade Cooley Documentary - Hollywood Walk of Fame
Donnell Clyde Cooley , better known as Spade Cooley, was an American Western swing musician, big band leader, actor, and television personality. Cooley's career ended in 1961 when he was arrested and convicted for the murder of his second wife, Ella Mae Evans.
Early life
He was born in Grand, Oklahoma, United States. Being part Cherokee, Cooley was sent to the Chemawa Indian School in Salem, Oregon during the assimilationist American Indian boarding school era of forced separation of Native American children from their families, communities, and traditions. In 1930, his family moved to California during the Dust Bowl.

Hello I'm going to tell you the real story of this man. Spade's first wife went through pure hell with that man and had it not been for him meeting Ella she probably would have been murdered herself. Ella Mae suffered some of the twisted and horrific abuse I've ever heard a woman to suffer. He sexually assaulted her multiple times including using prostitutes in one of those assaults. He physically assaulted her almost every chance he got to the point many around her knew he would one day kill her. She attempted to take her own life multiple times and ended up being instituted each time for it. That sick bastard made his own daughter watch as he killed her mother and then molested her. And the truly saddest part of all of this was the fact that he didn't murder his wife because of that ridiculous water park (which he was only building as a incentive to make his wife move out to the desert with him because the neighborhood knew what was going on in that house) but he killed her because for the first time in all of this hell she went through she was going to run away from him because she knew he was going to finally kill her. This whole story was a tragedy and this man should not be celebrated in any form.

Some of his best music, “Shame on You”, and “The Trouble with Me” display Spade’s preoccupation with infidelity: Shame, shame on you Shame, shame on you Gave my heart as a token When returned it was broken Hide your face, Shame on you… …ran around with other guys, Tried to lie when I got wise, Shame on you…… “The trouble with me, Is I’m troubled over you, You’re my honey bee, And I can’t trust you”
