Introducing: The Trail Went Cold; The Boys on the Tracks
August 23, 1987. Saline County Arkansas. 16-year old Don Henry and 17-year old Kevin Ives
head into the woods to do some late-night hunting, but never return. Hours later, the two boys are seen lying on some railroad tracks before they are run over by a cargo train and the medical
examiner concludes they had fallen asleep after smoking marijuana and their deaths were
accidental. However, Don and Kevin's families push for a new investigation, which uncovers
evidence that they were violently attacked before their bodies were placed on the tracks.
Throughout the years, a number of conspiracy theories emerge to suggest the boys were
murdered as part of a cover-up involving drug trafficking, but no one is ever charged with the
crime. "The Trail Went Cold" released a two-part episode about this convoluted story for their
five-year anniversary show.
This is a preview of The Trail Went Cold's coverage of the case and you can find the rest of the
story by subscribing to The Trail Went Cold wherever you listen to podcasts or by visiting their
