Dreadful
First of all, there is far too much of the reporter inserting herself into the story. How this has affected her, and how wide an impact this murder has had for her life. It's not her story. Secondly, (of some potential social edification), there's a glimpse inside the inherent bias of police, as they react to the affluent, not-very-experienced with law enforcement, first suspect (read: white), as acting "entitled", as he is arrested and accused wrongfully of the murder his friend. Take a moment to think about that. He's an "entitled" brat, because he expects to be treated fairly by police? The greater implied acknowledgement is that minority suspects know well enough to resign themselves to harassment and being presumed guilty. It's all the worse, when the reporter essentially cosigns this bias. Finally, in a further blow to civil liberties, the abundance of cameras leads the cop to bemoan the lack of CCTV 16 years earlier, which could have solved the case for him. He had two witnesses and bungled the handling of both, I doubt CCTV would have helped him.Read full review »

More reviews of A Murder On Orchard Street
Enjoying the podcast but why only 15 min. episodes once a week? The content is slightly shallow, there could be much more information packed into each of these episodes.

I personally feel like podcasts like this should at least be 30 min long if not a full hour. Waste of time to listen to 12 or 16 minute episodes...
