When one young man discovered his passion for drumming, he soon began dreaming of living the rockstar lifestyle. His talent and ambition paid off and soon, he found himself in very high demand. Unfortunately, drugs and alcohol, combined with an undiagnosed mental illness, turned his dream into a nightmare that ended with the brutal murder of someone very close to him. Join me as I walk you through the life and crimes of famed rock and roll drummer, James Beck Gordon, and the murder of Osa Gordon.
