Alligator Candy: Every Parent’s Nightmare

In 1973, Jon Kushner set off on his bicycle with plans to pick up candy for his little brother, David. But when he didn’t return home, Jon’s parents panicked. A week later, he was discovered in a shallow grave. He was just 11 years old. Jon’s little brother, David Kushner, is now a journalist who has written for publications like Rolling Stone, The New Yorker and Vanity Fair. In 2016, he turned the pen on himself and released Alligator Candy, a moving memoir and podcast, about his brother’s murder and how his family coped in the aftermath.
