  • Like Shawshank, but real.

    As a society, we have got to start holding accountable those who corrupt our judicial process. If you believe the witnesses, which I do, the detectives repeatedly behaved criminally, and should be prosecuted.

    I’m glad I now know this story. There is so much in this story that I will take with me from here, on.

  • Show is fine, but

    Entirely too many commercials. Not sure if that’s the show or ihearts fault but it’s ridiculous. I’m skipping 3-5 minute blocks a couple of times an episode

  • This Meeting could have been an email….

    The story is great! Told really well and it’s super interesting. But I kid you not, there are more commercials than story. Like, this should have been a 2 part story.

    9 episodes just to monetize their podcast more. Yes, commercials are necessary in podcast world, but 7 extra episodes of at least 12 commercials per episode….greed.

  • I love this podcast. I was captivated immediately. However there's just way too many ads. So many unnecessary ads that it will probably deter me from listening to any further podcasts from this network.
