  • So Atmospheric

    Beautifully told stories that make you think about the person behind the ‘crime’ and that people can simply just make bad decisions which doesn’t make them criminals .. just people who make mistakes. Humans.

    Thanks Jim. I can’t get enough of your work. And it’s a pleasure to listen to you while I do my many jobs! With respect from Brighton, England x

  • Interesting but…

    There are a lot of holes in the stories. For example, no description of trials, sentences, how long they were imprisoned, or how they escaped. Some of these stories leave the listener with a lot of unanswered questions
