This is an EXCELLENT podcast. The research, depth, and heartfelt details are incredible. April is a real hero. She is generous with her heart and fearless in her pursuit of unthinkable truths. She never centers herself, but focuses on the victims and the truth. Wow!!! A+ - blown away.

This is hands down my favorite podcast of all time. I can’t tell you how many times I have listened to it throughout the years. Being able to look into these horrific crimes from the viewpoint of the murderers daughter is so unique and incredible. I have been searching for something to fill the “Clearing” podcast hole in my heart but haven’t found anything yet.

Thank you for making this podcast. Thank you to April for showing her vulnerable side and her determination. Especially enjoyed the last few minutes of the last episode, to hear two people who could have chosen to be on opposite sides, just decide to respect and love each other and act like this is the only choice they had. Thank you for all your hard work. I hope April can sleep a bit better now.
