United States24 days ago Great information and research. The "Doe" episodes should largely disappear - it's like someone promises you a true crime story and then stops after telling you the title. A LOT of the DNA technicality and exhaustive mention of bodily fluids could be dropped or given slightly less descriptive names. It can seem too much.

Compass directions added/or omitted to/from towns. None of it adequately searchable o... more
