In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles, Donnie and Dale are joined again my Laura Riste (pronounced Rist E) and we are discussing David Clayton Warner who was last seen in Jefferson City, Tennessee on March 2, 1983. That day, he said he was going to a church function up the street from his home. He did go to the church, but did not go inside. Instead, he went to Druther's Restaurant for a hamburger, which was free because David had gotten an A on his report card. After eating, David went to a friend's home and they watched TV until 7:00 pm. David said he was going home then, to his house about 30 yards away. He has never been heard from again. https://crackhousechronicles.com/ Check out our MERCH! https://www.teepublic.com/user/crackhousechronicles Sponsors: https://betterhelp.com/chc If you use this link or Promo Code CHC, BetterHELP will give you 10% off your first months bill.
