S&STVSeason 2EP16 | Final Verse
In the heart of Nashville, rising musician Kyle Yorlets was gunned down in broad daylight—by a group of kids. The oldest was sixteen. The youngest, just twelve. What led five children to commit such a brutal crime—and what does it say about the world they were growing up in? This is the story no song could ever tell.
Bonus Content
Nashville: the city of dreams, neon lights, and guitar strings. But for 24-year-old musician Kyle Yorlets, a rising talent with everything ahead of him, that dream came to a violent and senseless end—on a quiet Thursday afternoon, in broad daylight, just steps from his own front door. The suspects were teenagers—five of them. The oldest was sixteen. The youngest, just twelve.
They weren’t seasoned criminals or long-time offenders. They were kids. Yet somehow, they were armed and on the streets, making adult decisions with consequences they couldn’t possibly comprehend—leaving a trail of devastation that felt less like a crime and more like falling into a ring of fire.
The case sent shockwaves through a city used to telling stories in verses and choruses. But this one didn’t come with a melody. No redemption arc. No feel-good ending. Just questions about where we failed, how we got here, and what happens next when child-like innocence becomes irrelevant.
Join Sword and Scale as we interview those who knew Kyle Yorlets and those who fought on his behalf. Because behind the music, beneath the surface, lies a truth far more haunting than any song could ever capture.
