28:54Now PlayingIn 2004, a man who appeared to be in his mid-50s was found laying near a Burger King’s dumpster in Richmond Hill, Georgia. He said he suffered from amnesia— he could not remember who he was or how he got there, and claimed to only possess a handful of memories total from his life. He called himself Benjaman Kyle, and in the following years, this story of a man with seemingly no identity was featured on the news, a student documentary, and even on Dr. Phil. A decade later, the founders of Hot Snakes Media heard Benjaman Kyle’s story, and set off to film a documentary that would attempt to find out who he actually was and piece together his forgotten life. Pretty soon after they started shooting the documentary, his true identity was revealed. But the production team realized that things with Benjaman, and his past, weren’t adding up. ‘The Many Lives Of Benjaman Kyle’ co-executive producers Shannon and Eric Evangelista and former FBI special agent and EP Ken Maxwell joined "Forbes True Crime" to discuss.
