I am a big fan of true crime and I have tried to like these podcasts but they go into way too much detail. Generally that amounts to reading pages and pages of court transcripts, forensic reports police interviews. They tend to start off well then just get lost in way too much detail. We do not need to hear every piece information, either top level or mid level would do. It’s a shame as on paper these pods should be great.
By far the best true crime podcast I have ever had the pleasure of stumbling across. It is evident that Paul has nothing but the highest respect for victims of crime and their families, and each episode is researched in incredible detail. He is compassionate and there will never be a joke made at the victim's expense, which I have unfortunately heard in other podcasts and I find to be incredibly distasteful. Nothing but praise for the show. Highly recommend. Keep up the good work, Paul!!
