  • Journalism?

    I finished this hoping the journalists would redeem themselves but it didn’t happen. I wondered at first why the family took the stance they did. It’s clear that it was because of harassment by the police chief. Tony was obviously beloved by many and also very problematic. The glossing over of the serious problems within his department took away the credibility of the journalists. Sissy does deserve justice. I can’t imagine she would want it at the expense of her family against whom the reason e... more

  • One long trailer

    Just poorly written. It feels like one long boring trailer.

  • Poor family

    Started out really well but…..so much chatter about Tony and his determination to pin the murder on someone who had NO motive. Had to speed through last 4-5 episodes…sheesh! So sorry but, it was a nothing burger in the end and I felt like the poor family was harassed all over again.

  • Storytelling was good

    A cold case I had not heard of before. I think I would have liked Sissy. It is a darned shame this case and many others remained unsolved. Appreciate the objective view on Tony’s investigation. I understand journalism takes dogged persistence but I think this podcast was harsh on the murder victim’s family members. We had a tragic accidental killing of a family member. We were harassed by the media and never spoke to them. I get why the family doesn’t want to speak to the podcast.
