46 years ago It Was a Hoax to Cover up



36-year-old singer-songwriter Tammy Wynette, originally Virginia Wynette Pugh aka The First Lady of Country Music is supposedly kidnapped and terrorized by an unidentified masked man, physically assaulted and abandoned 80 miles away in Nashville, Tennessee, United States.

In her 2000 memoir Wynette's daughter Jackie Daly published that her mother had confessed to her that the kidnapping was a hoax to cover up domestic violence from her fifth husband George Richey. Richey denied the allegation.
