  • So boring

    I couldn’t even make it through one episode. Very repetitive narration and the monotone voice has me on the verge of falling asleep.

  • 1981 ep

    How are they “both born in 1986” but disappear in September 1981?? Episodes are too short and this one lost me.

  • Great story

    But OH the melodramatic narration (verge of tears) and overly-flowery language. And definitely not an apolitical presentation. Such a good story but the tone is soooooo melodramatic. And way toooooo verbose! And the music is mismatched and distracting.

  • i’m not sure…

    starting at season 3. so, full disclosure; i have no idea how those season compare to this one. this is very story telling/descriptive. i feel like we are in a creative writing class listening to our peer read her piece to the rest of us.

    i don’t need to paint a picture. i just really want to hear about the two women on their camping trip.

    it’s making my mind wander. maybe it’s my ADHD?

    great storytelling. but, not the kind of true crime podcast i need.

    I enjoyed the first season but the second sounds like it was written by ChatGPT.

BONUS | What We're Still Asking: Tonetta Carlisle & Brandy Hall
Q: Why did Randall lie about their last call?
He may have lied either to hide the affair or because that call revealed something that implicated him.
BONUS Q&A EPISODE: Your Questions, Answered
Q: Do you think the police could have done more for Jasmine's family?
Once they were engaged, it was all hands on deck, but the response could have been quicker.
BONUS Q&A EPISODE: Your Questions, Answered
Q: Do you know, was Jason offered a plea deal?
I don't think he was because at the point when the trial started, the prosecution did not know in the opening statement his defense attorney was going to say Jason killed Jasmine.
Episode 10: After the Verdict
Q: Would I ever serve on a jury again after this experience?
I think I would, but only if I felt I could give it the attention and care it deserves.
