  • Excellent Reporting

    Well paced with great interviews and fascinating new content. I’ve really enjoyed season three and appreciate that even though there isn’t much new news with the case after the plea deal, they still keep each episode engaging. Keep it coming!

  • Anyone listening to reviews??

    Agree with all the recent reviews. Too many ads, no real information, questionable content and opinions, etc.

    Definitely gone downhill.

  • Rabbit hole

    The Piketon Massacre started off pretty good, with the commentators making great effort to explore other possibilities. However, as the series went on into the Idaho situation, their judgmental political opinions became more and more evident. Now, they are very racist toward young white males. They are really starting to go down rabbit holes with A LOT of out-there speculation and fabricated ideas with ZERO evidence. Really turning into more a tabloidesque vibe more than speaking on facts. It’s ... more

  • Finally Done

    This podcast went downhill after Piketon and never returned. It’s gotten progressively worse in quality but this latest “expert guest”…I just can’t do it anymore. “Angry white men” is on par with “angry black women” but you don’t see the hypocrisy or harm in the race baiting? Seriously? Have we not learned our lesson in where racism has gotten us? And no, im not a white male but are we not divided enough? If you don’t see that demonizing any color of people is wrong, you’re the problem. There ar... more

His complaints about meal provisions and being harassed suggest he has not fully grasped the gravity of his situation and maintains an entitled mindset.

Inmates have limited access to entertainment and only one hour a day outside their cells for exercise or tablet use, where they are confined to a cage.
