An investigation into the circumstances and controversy surrounding Sam Cooke's murder.
This documentary was excellent! It's time for the truth to come out! I read Sam Cooke's great nephew, Erik Greene, book years ago. I've never believed the story that was told in the media. I am going to trust the word of the family, his friends and the retired police officer ( who worked the area) then a few people who continue to push a false narrative. Also, I haven't found one website that states that Jesse Belvin had a driver. I could be wrong but I didn't see one. Again, this document was long overdue. Please, please don't allow people to continue to destroy this man's legacy with lies. Please read his great nephew's book, Our Uncle Sam: The Sam Cooke Story from his Family's Perspective. It has a lot of information that was not included in this documentary.
