Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash, El Paso, Texas, 1965 The El Paso sheriff's placard is dated 10-4-65. Cash was coming back from Juárez, Mexico, when narcotics agents found more than a thousand Dexedrine and Equanil pills in his guitar case. He spent a night in jail, and the following year he received a suspended 30-day sentence and a $1,000 fine. Two decades on, a former deputy was convicted of trying to extort him over copies of this very photo.
