And we return to our American stories. Up next, a story of redemption out of Kansas City, Missouri. Let's get into it.

So my name is Bill Coram. I was the enemy of God for 39 years. I just celebrated my 40th year as a Christian. But my life, I started it. Let me tell you about the eight times I should have died. One specific time, my sister died seven years ago. And I never knew until she was on her deathbed. And we were talking one day. And I asked her if she was going to be buried in the same cemetery as my mom and dad, because I knew they had two other lots there. And she said no. She said Lloyd and I are going to be buried down in another cemetery. She said, why don't you and Debbie take those two lots? And I said, why did dad have four lots anyway? She said, you don't know.

And I said, no, I don't know, Sharon. My sister was seven years older than I was. My sister was seven years older than I was. And so she said, when mama was pregnant with you, the doctor told mom and dad that she would die at giving birth to you and you would die.

And so daddy went and bought four lots, one for you and mama, and then one for him and I when we died. And so I now tell people this. I've known for years that the devil's tried to kill me. I've been in over 25 car wrecks and motorcycle wrecks.

I've been in riots and prisons. I've overdosed a few times. I've had two heart attacks from doing cocaine. The devil's been trying to kill me forever, but I just found out seven years ago. He was trying to kill me before I was even born.

He didn't want me to be born telling you how good God is. And the devil did not want me to do that, but it took a long time to get there. When I was about eight years old, I started smoking cigarettes. I started looking at pornography.

I started stealing and it just progressed. My mom and dad took me to church as a kid, but I was always doing something wrong. Even in church at church, I was doing stuff wrong and I was always doing stuff wrong. I had a rebellious streak in me and the older I got, the worse it got. When I was 18 years old, I was at a crossroads in my family. And when I was 18 years old, I was at a crossroads in my life.

Let me back up a year before that. I was shooting pool in the pool hall. I stayed in the pool hall about 12 hours a day. I didn't go to school. I learned more in the pool than I did in school anyway.

So that's where I love to go every day. And I was shooting pool one day and a guy that I barely knew came up behind me and said, hey, Bill, let's go join the Marines. And I said, let me finish this game. And that's how serious I took life. Because I knew if I didn't like the Marines, I'd just quit because I quit everything. I quit jobs. I quit girls.

I quit anything that didn't go the way I thought it should go. And so I thought if the Marines don't go right, I'll just quit. And so when I was 18, I stood before a Marine Corps colonel.

I'd already gotten in a lot of trouble in the Marines and I stood before a Marine Corps colonel. And he said, if you don't straighten up, you'll be in the penitentiary before you're 21 years old. And I was at a crossroads in my life right there. I had a choice of straightening up, taking his advice and my life would have gone a different direction. But what do you think I did?

I laughed in his face. And by the time I was 21, I had ridden 2,500 miles in handcuffs and leg irons and waist chains. I'd been locked up in several states. I'd seen murders and rapes and suicides in prisons. I came out of that prison a very hard-hearted man.

And when I came out of that prison in 1964, I said, I had two goals. I'm never going back and I'm never going to get caught. I had no intentions of living a law-abiding life.

I had no intentions of straightening up. I was just going to be more careful. And I went for almost 19 years before I got caught. And in that 19 years, my life progressed from everything from small petty burglary, really from as small as picking tips up off tables. I always picked up tips.

If I had $3,000 or $4,000 in my pocket and I was walking out of a restaurant and there was $2 or $3 laying on the table and nobody was looking, I had now $3 or $4,002 in my pocket. I did anything that was illegal. I did anything that was illegal. And so I went from petty burglary to international gun smuggling. My partner was going to Columbia to Bogota to buy cocaine.

And we were sending midnight specials over there. We'd buy pistols on the street for $100. And in South America, a handgun's illegal and they would bring $1,000. And so we would send 10 handguns over there and turn $1,000 into $10,000.

That's a pretty serious crime if you get caught for international gun smuggling. But that was the least of my worries because I didn't think I could get caught. I had moved up to where I wanted power and money and influence. And I had all three of those things. I had enough money to stay in $500 a night hotels.

I rode in limousines. I bought $20,000 for a one-night party worth of cocaine. So I had the money I'd always wanted. I had enough power to make a phone call and have somebody killed.

So I had the power I'd always wanted. And I had enough influence that when I was arrested, it was September 5th, 1982. And it wasn't a traffic ticket.

I'd put 100 stitches in the back of a guy's head with a ball bat. And it was a very serious charge, originally attempted murder. And I got booked in the jail. I love to ask this questions in jails. I love to ask guys, how many of you have ever been locked up on a weekend?

And every hand goes up, every hand goes up. And then I ask this question, what happens when you get arrested on a weekend? And everybody yells at the same time, nothing because you're not going anywhere on a weekend. Well, they booked me in the jail at two o'clock Sunday afternoon, September 5th, 1982. And I walked out of jail at 1.30 Monday morning because of the influence I had. When I got arrested, we made our first phone call, called the city councilman we were selling cocaine to, and said, you know who to call. And the city councilman called the judge that we were selling cocaine to. And I love to ask this question in prison. How many of you know that when you're selling cocaine to a judge, he doesn't want you in jail? And so we were out of jail in less than 12 hours on a weekend.

I walked out of jail at 1.30 Monday morning. And when I walked out of that jail, I said, Bill Quorum, you've finally arrived. You've got money, you've got power, and you've got influence. But there was something missing in my life. I had this money and this power and this influence.

The Bible says, what is the profit of man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul? And that's where I was. I had all this money and power and influence, but I had no peace. I was looking for peace all the time.

I'd been looking for years. I mean, there was a time in my life I looked like a white Mr. T. I wore my shirt sun button down to my belly button with gold chains around my neck and carrying guns, anything that looked important. But I was really looking for peace, and I had no peace. If I was in a restaurant eating and a cop came in, I'd go pay my bill and get out the door.

Or I might go in the bathroom and go out the window, depending on what stage of my life I was in. And guess what? The cop wasn't even after me. He didn't even know Bill Corman was in the restaurant. The cop came in there because he was hungry. He just came in there to get something to eat. And after I became a Christian, I was reading in the Bible and it says, a wicked man runs when no one's chasing him. And I went, wow. I left a lot of steak dinners sitting at the table because the waitress had just set my meal down and a cop walked in and I got up and went and paid my bill and walked out the door.

And after I read that, I was like, I could have ate all them dinners. And you're listening to Bill Corum and what a line that is, a wicked man runs when no one's chasing him. And he, well, he was running and he was running towards peace. He couldn't find it. He tried power, he tried money, he tried influence.

None of them worked. Heck, he made one phone call and got himself out of jail, had the power to kill a person, and would routinely have large parties, large limos, fancy hotel rooms. Something was missing in his life. And boy, the young Bill Corum, I mean, I can just see the scene of him looking at a superior officer in the Marine Corps and just laughing in the guy's face. And all he was trying to do, that officer, was warn him that if he kept going down the road he was going, he'd end up in prison. I love the way this started. I was the enemy of God for 39 years.

Pick it up at Amazon or wherever books are sold, you won't be able to put it down. When we last left off, Bill was telling us about how he was a criminal, the enemy of God in his own words. Now Bill turns to telling us about his parents and reading from his aforementioned book. Take it away, Bill. Oh, my mother was on her knees for her life.

Her knees were wore out. There is no one I know of on my mother's or dad's side of the family who ever went to prison or got into trouble like I did. I have to take responsibility for my own actions.

No one held a gun to my head. I made choices. I know if there was ever a black sheep in the family, it was me.

And I was the blackest of them all. There's one commandment in the Bible that comes with a promise that says, if we honor our father and mother, we will have a long life. I would not be honoring my parents if I didn't tell you this about them. I have personally never known anyone whose parents loved them like mine.

I'm not saying there is no one. I have just not personally met them. Most inmates I have talked to over the years have come from broken homes. And my parents were married 63 years.

Drugs and alcohol have plagued most inmates' homes since their birth. My folks never touched a drop of alcohol in their lives. My mother and father didn't smoke or use any kind of drugs. I never heard a curse word come out of either one of their mouths. The only time in my life I remember my dad saying anything that could be considered cussing was when I was with that 15-year-old girl in the motel and he asked me what I'd done to her. I worked by my dad's side building houses and never heard him swear or tell a dirty joke.

I did see him walk away when other people told him. My mother died when she was 93 years old and she had never been in a movie theater or to a dance. They were the most loving, unselfish people I've ever known in my whole life. I remember mom would put me and my sister to bed at night and if dad asked for a bowl of ice cream, she would not get him one unless she got Sharon and I up and gave us one. They visited me everywhere I got locked up. When I got locked up in Clarksdale, Mississippi, they drove 550 miles to see me. When I was waiting to go to trial in Oxford, they drove 600 miles to see me. Dad told me years later that sometimes they drove down, visited me, then drove home, bathed, changed clothes and drove right back.

It was a 1,200 mile round trip and they made it many times. I remember one time they came to see me and asked if I wanted a chocolate malt. I wanted one for sure, but there were 10 or 12 guys in the big cell I was in. Dad asked the jailer if he could bring everyone malts. The jailer gave him the okay.

In a few minutes, he returned with the malts for everyone, including the jailer. When my friends and I hopped the freight train and got locked up in Tucumcari, New Mexico, my dad made the 1,300 mile round trip to get us out of jail and take us home. When I was sent to Ashland, Kentucky for 60 day observation, they made a 1,400 mile round trip to see me. I was there with guys who'd been locked up for years and their families only lived an hour or two away and they never got a visit. They visited me in San Diego when I was in boot camp, which was 1,600 miles one way. When I was in the brig in Millington, Tennessee, they drove over 500 miles to see me. Inglewood, Colorado is another place they drove 600 miles to see me. I figured it up once. My dad drove over 25,000 miles in one year visiting me.

The average mileage on a car back then was 10,000 miles a year. If I came in at 11 o'clock at night with a couple of buddies, my mom would get out of bed, ask if we were hungry. All one of them had to do was nod his head and she whipped up a five course meal. She loved to cook for me and loved to watch me eat. I think she tried to kill every friend I brought around with food. There was no one who could cook like my mother.

She didn't use recipes and everyone in our family has tried to copy her cooking since she's been gone, but no one's mastered it. Are you starting to get the picture of how much my parents loved me? No matter what I did, they loved me. And my sister and I came first and they were second. They did everything possible to help me and still I was a rebel. If there was ever a human on this earth who should have excelled and never been in trouble, it was me. I had their blessing from the time I was born until they died. And see when I wrote this, I didn't know I was supposed to die before I was even born. If they did all that for me when I was rebellious, how much more would they have done for me if I had not been rebellious?

I don't believe they would have done any more because their love was not conditional. Mom used to have dreams about me. She wore her knees out praying for me. She told me so many answers to the prayers she prayed for me.

I could fill another book. When Debbie started praying for me, Mom encouraged her and they prayed together. My saintly mother prayed for almost 40 years for me to surrender to Jesus. She prayed many times, not my will, but thy will be done. My dad gave me godly advice all my life.

He tried everything he knew to point me in the right direction, although I didn't listen to him at the time. Thankfully, he saw me walk out of the darkness and into the light before he died in 1991. We got to spend eight years together on the same page. Mom got to enjoy seeing me love God and love God and love my dad those last eight years of his life. Mom died in 1999, but she spent the last 16 years of her life praising the Lord for his answer. To her prayers for my salvation. We had many good times together. Mom and her best friend and life dad are together again in heaven.

I look forward to the day I joined them. No wonder I hated and cussed that psychiatrist at Ashland when he told me that it was my mom and dad's fault that I turned into a criminal. So you know I was doing $500 worth of cocaine a day. I was drinking two quarts of whiskey a day. I was kissing my wife goodbye and say I'll see you tonight and I come home for weeks. My kids would call, come over and say where's dad?

Debbie would say I haven't seen your dad in weeks. I was doing every kind of illegal drug there was. I mean I would have took a birth control pill if I thought I could get high on it. There was nothing I wouldn't do and I did it in massive amounts.

If everybody else was doing three of them I wanted to do six. I wanted to do more than anybody. Getting implicated as one of the leading cocaine dealers in Kansas City, Missouri I had a lot of money.

Being an enforcer for the Kansas City underworld I was out there doing enforcement, doing contract work, doing some serious serious stuff. I wasn't thinking about my kids. I was thinking about what I was doing for the for the family out there and that's all I cared about was my job I was doing making sure I did it right. Didn't care about anybody except me.

I carried a flamethrower on my back and it was always lit. I'd burn up every bridge I went over because I wasn't going back. I had no reason to go back. I was only going back because I had no reason to go forward. My motto was if you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much space and I was out there going going going. My wife says I was going 200 miles an hour in the world just doing cocaine and drinking and people go you couldn't drink two quarts of whiskey and I said you never did cocaine did you because when you're doing cocaine you could drink 10 quarts of whiskey you can't get drunk when you're doing cocaine.

That's why people die of speed balls. They do heroin and cocaine together because your heart's beating so fast. Like I used to go home when I'd been gone for three four weeks at a time there was a 7-11 not far from our house. Remember where that 7-11 used to be up there on Raytown road and we lived at 6224 Willow and I'd be gone three weeks and I decided to go home and I didn't have nothing I didn't have any downers or no pills.

I'd pull in that 7-11 I buy four or five bottles of Nyquil and I'd start driving toward the house because I was trying to slow my heart down so she wouldn't hear it because I thought it was going to jump out of my chest. That's why I had two heart attacks from doing cocaine because your heart's getting go so fast and that's why people mix it with heroin and they do that's what John Belushi died of was speed balls heroin and cocaine mixed. And you're listening to Bill Corum talk about his life on the edge and that unlike so many people he shared prison space with he was not the product of a broken home.

When we last left off Bill had become an enforcer for the Kansas City underworld and had gotten arrested for attempted murder. He was a former enforcer for the Kansas City underworld and had gotten arrested for attempted murder.

Let's return to the story here again is Bill Korm. Well I was still I was still moving a lot of drugs even though I'd gotten busted I was charged with first degree assault with intent to kill which carried 15 to life in Missouri and we also were charged with first degree burglary which carried like five to 20 or something so really I was facing a minimum of 20 years and a maximum of life and then I got implicated as being one of the leading cocaine dealers in the city which just added to the problems. I was staying away from home because they were watching us and by that time after a guy gave a 20-page statement to the Missouri narcotics division which was like a book and he named everybody in there that we were dealing with including the judge that we got out of jail with. All of the people that we knew and were associated with were starting to fall like flies I mean they were starting to drop and they were getting arrested they were getting killed they were getting you know and I was watching all this stuff taking it all in. I was still moving drugs but I was staying out of town about 75 miles from here and I was staying in an old farmhouse a friend of mine that I'd been an associate with and he was a real big gangster I mean a killer really and one night I went to bed and I don't know if the story's worth telling or not but every time I'd come to Kansas City and go back down there like when I was going across seven highway it was down toward the lake and every time I'd go down that seven highway and back then it was single lane a lot of it I would drive that car as fast as it'd go if I was in a car that'd go 140 I'd go 140 if I was in a car go 110 I'd go 110 and it was almost like I wanted to die. There was a real war going on I mean the more I think about I should really write it all down someday hadn't I but anyway this one particular night I went upstairs to go to bed and I was going upstairs and looking at the wall paint on the wall was coming off the handrail was all chipped and and I thought this this whole house looks like I feel because I even though I was only not quite 40 I had a lot of miles on me like I said I've been locked up in 10 states I've ridden 2,500 miles in handcuffs like underways I've been in car wrecks and motorcycle wrecks and just a lot of stuff that I shouldn't have made it through crazy crazy stuff and you know I got implicated or not implicated I got nicknamed crazy bill because of some of the stupid stuff I did just completely off the chain and I just was going up that stairway and I was tired I was so tired and I got in bed and I turned on the rock and roll and I was laying there and the radio you know how like some radios you when you're they don't have a good connection and you're trying to tune them in and then you hear a little music and I turn it and I finally got it on a rock and roll station I was laying there and then it went and I heard a preacher going no matter what you've done God loves you he's got a plan for your life and I went I don't want to hear that back to the rock and roll and I lay back down Jesus will forgive you no matter what you've done he loves you and I went it just kept happening it kept going back to this guy preaching and then God gave me like a vision I mean almost a vision I guess I never had a vision I don't think but maybe that time but I remember seeing I don't think it was a dream I think I was wide awake but I saw Rex I'd had like I flipped the van one time six times end over in after went end over in six times then I rolled it down a hill it ended up in a like a creek every piece of metal was twisted and mangled the three of the wheels and tires got ripped off looked like a train hit it I took my mother to see that van she started crying and she said son don't you see God has his hand on you and I looked there and I said mom God had nothing to do with that I'm a good driver I'm a good driver and that's how warped my mind was I didn't have a seat belt on I broke the steering wheel in half and I bent the brake pedal on a 45 degree angle pushing I pulled I pulled my hamstring real bad because I knew if I let go I was going out so I stayed in there I held on and so I'm like God didn't do that I did that I mean look how big and strong because I used to be real big and strong I'm a good driver I didn't let go my nickname was Superman I thought I was Superman so that night the Lord showed me in some of those wrecks and some of those crushes and some of the things that I'd done and that it wasn't me it was his love and that's the night that's the night I said God if you're real and you can change Bill Cornwall I live my life for you and I went to sleep and slept peacefully which I never did usually woke up the next morning called her and said you want to come get me and I left my guns down there and didn't think about that went home slept for a week I get a phone call one day she's at work I answered the phone and all I heard was you can't walk out on us click and I knew what it meant and I had this terrible fear I didn't have a bible yet but her bible was laying there and I picked it up and opened it up and it said if a man's ways please God he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him that's the only thing I could see if a man's ways please God he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him and I said God I want my ways to please you because I knew I had some enemies after I got that phone call I knew that I knew that so then I fell asleep I had her bible and I sat down a recliner and I laid back and I had her bible right here on my chest and I had a dream of her I heard the doorbell I saw her walk across the floor open the door and I saw the barrel of the gun and the fire and saw her fall to the floor dead and I just woke up in total fear and I'm like oh my God they're going to kill Debbie they're not going to kill me they're going to kill her they're going to kill my family and again her bible was right here so I just opened it up and the only words I could see said no weapon formed against you shall prosper and then I flipped it just went like this and the only words I could see said the Lord is my light of my salvation whom shall I fear of whom shall I be afraid and I was like wow this book is true and then I began to read and then it said if you don't do what it says you deceive your own self and see I was the poorest deceiver of the planet I wanted to deceive everybody I lied to everybody when I was married to my first wife I had three girlfriends at the same time none of them knew I had other girlfriends she didn't know I had any girlfriends I was cheating on all four of them and I loved it I had an old lady tell me one time when I had my office up there at that Baptist church that a woman said you know she was about 95 I was probably 55 she goes you know son if you never tell a lie you don't have to remember what you said and I thought wow now that's a whistle there in 1987 I went to Africa with some men from our church and that was a miracle too because I was on paper I was on parole and when I went and asked my parole officer could I go to Africa he laughed at me he said Bill you can't even go across the state line I'm not gonna let you leave the country and I said well I didn't figure you would but I just wanted to ask and I was getting ready to walk out of his office and he said hey Bill tell you what I'll do if you'll write a letter to the judge who sentenced you and that judge will give you permission to even apply for a passport I'll let you go to Africa I did I sent the letter the passport application the money and I went to Africa so I'm in Africa I'm walking along a trail with 10 men from the church and I almost stepped on a grasshopper and I picked it up and just kind of threw it to the side and out of the side of my eye I saw it land in a little puddle of water and I said hey guys hold up wait up so they all stopped and I ran over in the grass I got the grasshopper out of the water put him in the grass and I ran and caught up with them and they said Bill what were you doing back there and I said I didn't want that grasshopper to drown and then I started crying and they said why are you crying and I said because four years ago I would kill a man for money and today I don't want a bug to die and I knew right then that God had taken my heart of stone and given me a heart of flesh and I wrote a little track called heart of stone and and I would sing this over and over and over if I had the opportunity I'll just tell you what it says I can't sing it because I tell guys in prison if I sing you'll sign up for death row because my
