Welcome back everyone to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour! Today's episode highlights the importance of societal divisions. 
In a town known more for its cattle than its culture, Amarillo, Texas, became the unlikely stage for a brutal clash of identities on a cold December night in 1997. Brian Deneke, a 19-year-old with a mohawk, was brutally run down by a car driven by Dustin Camp, a high school jock. What started as a petty rivalry between the punks and preps of Amarillo escalated into a deadly encounter that cost Brian his life. This wasn't just a senseless act of violence; it was a murder that laid bare the deep-seated prejudices simmering beneath the surface of a small town.
But the tragedy didn't end with Brian's death. The trial that followed would expose the disturbing ways in which societal biases infiltrated the courtroom.
The verdict and its aftermath would send shockwaves through Amarillo and beyond, prompting questions about justice, identity, and the dangerous consequences of societal divisions. As we sip our coffee and delve into this dark chapter, we explore not only the events that led to Brian's untimely death but also the lingering impact his story has had on the fight for justice and acceptance.
Remember to hold your loved ones close, and stay spooky!
