Perhaps one of the toughest jobs one can ever think of doing will be the job of having the responsibility of keeping out, putting down and bringing in the bad guys in the society to face the law. It is only the bravest of men who take up this noble responsibility, often times paying huge sacrifices for their career choice. Buford Pusser is one man who aptly fits into this class of men.

What happened to buford pusser son

He grew into a tall fine young man with a good body frame which influenced his choice of playing basketball and football while in high school. After high school, he enlisted at the US Marine Corps as he hoped to pass the recruitment training and serve as a Marine Corp. However, it was discovered that Buford had asthma which made him medically unfit for the rigors of the job.

Pusser then opted to pursue wrestling as a career. Pusser got elected the sheriff of McNairy County, Tennessee when the serving sheriff James Dickey died bizarrely in an auto crash. In his new office, Buford Pusser had the main focus of fighting and eliminating the Dixie Mafia and the State Line Mob which were both involved in crimes ranging from moonshining, gambling, prostitution, human, drug and arms trafficking as well as several other vices.

It was in the discharge of this duty that Pusser emerged the hero we remember him for today.
