Amancio - Two Faces On A Tombstone (documentary, 64 minutes in length) Saturday Jan 30th, 2:30 PM

Amancio Corrales was well known in clubs throughout the Southwest for his drag perfomances. Amancio was dressed as a woman the night he was murdered. Yuma authorities let the investigation become a cold case that would never have been solved. Michael Baughman, without ever knowing Amancio, kept the story alive in the media and in the minds of reluctant law enforcement.
