The Intercept

Harris County, Texas, has sent more people to death row than any jurisdiction in the nation. Among them is Charles Raby. He confessed to the grisly murder of an elderly woman in Houston in 1992.

  • Interesting but imperfect

    This case is a fascinating one and the research done by the team behind the podcast is excellent - and they’ve worked hard to track down interviewees. However, the tone is at times condescending (especially when the hosts discuss the victim’s daughter) and the narrative can sometimes feel *too* one-sided.

    That said, it’s still a good and important series overall and worth your time.

  • Pointless

    Plays like an over extended episode of Maury Povich. Impoverished and (frankly) stupid people running head-long into our lazy and inept legal system. This isn’t interesting. This isn’t entertaining. This is just sad on a dozen different levels. Pointless waste of time.

  • No evidence

    This podcast is highlighting a story based on feelings and presenting no evidence. Then attempting to through in another suspect, again with no evidence. There seems to be no thorough investigation just interviews with victims family. You can’t complete an investigative true crime based on interviews only. This host is attempting to jump on the investigative true crime band wagon, this is not for everyone. Horrible job wasn’t convincing. Please stop allowing anyone to make a podcast.

  • Terrible narration
