Unresolved, The Murder of Joel Lovelien (2): The Clown, the Cowboy, and the Hunter

In the hours after Joel is found, the story begins to shift and scatter. Witnesses recall different things, a clown, a cowboy, a hunter, a lion, people arriving and leaving, a party bus pulling in and out. Detectives are left to sort through fragments of a night that feels crowded, blurred, and just out of reach. Music by HandTurner and Wowza in Kalamazoo.
