“Loved the podcast. Excellent research and superb reporting. However!!! Some interviews made me cringe so badly I had to turn the volume all the way down and at times take off my headphones. Guests had their microphones inside their mouths and you could literally hear amplified movements of their...”Read full review »

“This is such an important case and I’m grateful it was covered with so many facts provided. BUT, have the creators listened to a podcast before? We write very differently fo different mediums any they were writing for a 30sec news clip. 11 minute episodes are ridiculous! The short, choppiness of...”Read full review »

“Very good podcast. Balanced reporting. Only negative comment was on the Attorney Andrea. Clearly biased and detracts from otherwise balanced reporting of the incident and trial.”

“The spit quality is a off putting and bad first few episodes. Content is good and deep. The big problem is the right question does not come-out. Some cops are good, some bad, but you should not assume police will treat you right. That said, we know if you break the law, get high, and run around...”Read full review »

I am appalled by the amount of time this podcast spent on getting the point of view of criminals and friends of the “ victim “. This has nothing to do with race .... but that’s the spin...”Read full review »

The sound is so clear...”Read full review »

Nah, that doesn’t matter bc it’s almost exclusively black on black crimes, so you all wouldn’t care to report on that.
