Kevin Curtis was one half of a double Elvis tribute act, living in the Mississippi birthplace of the King. But after he stumbled onto what he thought was a black market organ harvesting scheme, Kevin went down a rabbit hole of conspiracy and on a quest to root out corruption. As his paranoia grew, threatening letters, sprinkled with deadly ricin, turned up at the offices of his enemies - as well as the White House.

The Netflix documentary series The Kings of Tupelo: A Southern Crime Saga tells the quirky tale of Kevin’s colorful life and dark obsessions. With its many twists and turns, we hear from the story’s cast of eccentric characters and follow the investigation into whether this Elvis impersonator hatched a plot sure to have him dancing to the Jailhouse Rock.

In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews directors Chapman and Maclain Way.
