Sensitively written and researched. Thank you.
Such a sad, tragic story. The host did such a good job of telling the story in a respectful way, and did amazing research and interviewing.
I first heard this story when Brittany was interviewed on Wicked Words. I’d never heard the story before and Brittany does a masterful job of sharing the story of the Peterson family and who they were as people and a family.
Excellent. Love a podcast that has interviews with people involved.
What I really enjoyed about this podcast was that it was told by family and friends with sensitivity. A thoroughly researched and interesting story.
