  • Excellent reporting but too difficult to listen

    I could not get through the whole podcast. The horror of these murders was too immense, and too detailed. The fact that these men didn’t face consequences is an even greater horror. Listening to what these Marines did to innocent men, women, and children; torture and violently gruesome murders, it makes me ashamed for my country. If this is the behavior of our soldiers in the middle east, it’s no wonder we are hated.

  • The amount of patience is insane

    I have no idea how you put up with those disgusting, racist, ignorant, useless people in season 2. After listening to the huge shocking difference from the white side and black side of the stories it’s crazy anyone of those white people think they are anything but less than sub human. And this is coming from a white person. But amazing the work you have done and I’m grateful for this podcast.

  • Unbelievable

    Quite likely the best investigative journalism in American history. It’s all jaw-dropping, but especially season 3.

  • Best in Class Investigative Journalism

    I listen to a lot - and I mean A LOT - of True Crime podcasts but In the Dark’s content has probably left the most lasting impression on me. Such thorough, captivating storytelling and a fearlessness that you have to respect. Please keep ‘em coming!
