This series of podcasts was really upsetting. It seems as though the prosecution were no better than criminals ruining peoples lives.

New Zealand4 months ago Ugh. The uptalking. Drop the loud music laid over the voices. Also, the "re" in macabre is silent.
Podcast Addict25 months agomeohmyThis is an amazing podcast to listen to! The narrator is spectacular and has an incredible voice. His writing skills are fantastic making it so easy to listen. The fact that these are real makes it so exciting. My only complaint is he doesn’t have enough stories for me to hear to and I do a lot of driving. Really not a complaint, just love hearing his stories, crimes and podcast!! Keep them coming.
Audible5PiperUnited States5 months ago- Great podcast, but…
I just finished the Dirty John episodes. Debra Newell is the most gullible person I have ever known. It amazes me that she is a successful businesswoman. Unfortunately, she gets it from her mother. The fact that she testified on behalf of her other daughter’s killer is mind boggling. Stupid is as stupid does. They probably voted for Trump. Unbelievable! Great podcast though.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crimes of the Times
What is Crimes of the Times about and what kind of topics does it cover?
A hard-hitting investigative series that explores high-profile, often underreported crime and justice stories through in-depth reporting, exclusive documents, and expert interviews.
