  • Angela Hammond

    I was thrilled to see you were covering her case only to be extremely let down by how quickly you zoomed through it and didn’t give your usual deep dive into various possibilities during your perspective portion. I hope some day someone will thoroughly investigate this case and stop just accepting people’s statements with no verification.

  • Love!

    I started as a Crime Weekly listener, but have added Detective Perspective to my line-up. I love how much you care about the victims and their families and finding closure and justice for them. I also enjoy hearing cases that are more rarely heard of. Keep up the great work!

  • Such a good thing

    It’s good that they shine light on unsolved cases. This may result in some of these cases being solved by bringing awareness to the public. Support them.
