Very little discussion about the actual case! Sorry, I don’t like leaving a negative review but I could not get through the first episode!
It’s great to hear about local cold case file. Would like to hear more details about the cases. Pod cast is very generic. More details to help solve case would be helpful. Asking some tough questions or digging a bit deeper. Maybe even shaking the tree a little. Call out the killers Ask them why they committed such a cowardly offence and how they can live with their actions. Certain someone knows something. Shake up their emotions.
I hope this officer isn’t interviewed anymore. If I hear Ummm one more time from him I’ll scream. Not a very well spoken man. Ummm
Boring!!
Not a lot of meat. Did not like it Found it boring
Best show of its kind I’ve heard. Without sensationalization. I recognize many of the cases and always wanted to know what happened. Not really a fan generally of this kind of show but your BT spot made me look at it.
Nice job ladies. Hard to listen to but necessary I think.
