History of Moonshine
One of Popcorn’s last arrests was in 2007 when a fire broke out
at his home in Parrotsville and his stills were discovered. He was
fined and sentenced to two years probation. He was arrested
again in 2008 and at trial his illegal activities all the way back into
the 1970s was presented.
He was sentenced to serve time and would have likely spent only
a year or so in prison. He stubbornly refused to accept such
treatment and committed suicide. Today he is a local folk hero
for his mountain ways, rugged individualism and likker making
skills.
