i remember this story from forensic files, which is why i decided to listen. from just watching the show it looked cut and dry but there was no background. i just started episode three but it’s so good!

This podcast treads are very fine line between a lot of different qualities that make other podcasts less awesome. It doesn’t choose to worship or demonize any party to the crime, regardless of their personality or anything else they’ve done. Instead, they have an unwavering commitment to the...Read full review »

Weak narration, quality of sound is poor. No discussion of actual evidence which is a problem of many true crime podcasts. Not sure I will continue.

I was such a big fan of the first season of Accused. As time goes on, she leans more and more into political activism infused reporting and storytelling. A tragic waste of talent in my opinion.
Jared T9 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/24
This season was so obviously biased…she interviews an anti-capital punishment lawyer who says the case stunk…well of course he’s going to think that and interview as such. Amber doesn’t even give an aside about it. As much as she tries to play devils advocate, she fails poorly in this season. ...Read full review »

Anything Amber Hunt does is worth a listen! And once you listen, you are hooked. Great investigative reporting, easy to listen to/binge.

I’ve listened to nearly every true crime podcasts , Accused is in a league of its own !!! Can’t wait for series 5 ! The best podcast by a mile !!!
Karen mcinerney via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 07/23/23
Amber you make my morning run fly by:) I can’t wait until you drop Season 5!

This podcast is the best. Love all the season. Amber Hunt does an amazing job. Wish I’d found this one sooner in my true crime listening journey, highly recommend.

Love love love this podcast (and everything Amber Hunt does)!! Every season is expertly researched, investigated, and reported on with top level professionalism, finesse, passion, and humor, but season 4–Elwood Jones’ story—is especially important and well worth the listen. Thank you, Ms. Hunt,...Read full review »

This is professional and fascinating. No mindless jabber, no silly speculating. Deep dives into facts. I just saw that Elwood Jones from season 4 is out on bond and is getting a new trial. You gotta believe Accused had something to do with that.

I learned about this podcast from my niece. I can’t stop listening because I want to hear what they uncover next. After I listen to season 4 I will go back and listen to the other seasons.
billdebby via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/23
Listened to Season 4 based on a suggestion of a friend. Glad I did. Amber Hunt and Amanda Rossmann do a good job exploring the story of Elwood Jones, engaging listeners from a variety of vantage points. They refrain from judging or developing a narrative to fit anyone perspective. Rather they...Read full review »

Miss Amber, I think you are the best. Your voice is very soothing. I listened to all four seasons. I think it was on # 4 and # 2 seasons that the defendants were self proclaimed bad people. I am glad to see there are still examples of God’s law, “live by the sword, die by the sword” If you...Read full review »

Lovvvvve this podcast!!! You are so detailed and thoughtful in how you present their stories!
Boofy19880719 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/11/22
The research and the lengths gone to uncover the truth is beyond compare. So sad it’s excellent show is coming to an end
colleen33333 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/04/22
Have enjoyed previous seasons but not season 4. Police got the right guy and he deserves the death penalty. Ridiculous narration designed to uncover injustice, not even handed at all. The title gives it away. Skip this season.

I really enjoyed listening to this podcast, it’s a riveting story! Each episode was dynamic featuring commentary from various individuals related to the event and the author/narrator did an excellent job tying everything together to create a cohesive and compelling story - one in which the...Read full review »

Just found this, after being a huge COTC fan! Season 3: just because there aren’t heatproof suits at the plant, doesn’t mean someone couldn’t have brought one with them!!! It’s kind of terrifying how close-minded the investigators who show up In these types of stories are. And please, someone get...Read full review »
Lightning121710 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/22
The depth and voracity with which these cases have been researched is outstanding in itself. The flawlessly factual content is spoken with impeccable clarity of voice making this podcast one of the best ive ever listened to. Well done!!
ccurley1965 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/22
I have listened to all 4 seasons. It balanced and very well done. I’m currently mourning that I’m out of episodes. I love everything about the writing, reporting, and interviews. As a very critical podcast listener, I’m highly impressed. In fact, this is the first review I’ve ever written and I’m...Read full review »

4th season refuses to play.
Tallsoprano via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/22
I’ll start by saying I love investigative journalists who uncover stories that are buried by the police, government, etc. However. Amber Hunt inserts herself into her stories far more than is necessary. She is SO judgmental, and feigns ignorance about why her questions are...Read full review »

Just the right balance of narrative, summary & interviews of involved & interested parties. This is investigative journalism at it’s best!
Jeanieeous via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/01/22
I just binged Season 2. I’m so happy that an innocent man was set free!! Thank You for righting that wrong! The question I need answered is was the Man who found Retha’s body ever investigated? Was he ever questioned? I’m in favor old setting innocent people free, more than anything. Thank You...Read full review »
MaverickAbundance via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/01/22
I’ve listened to four seasons now and each story has been intriguing and well presented. The hosts ask a lot of questions I never think of and you can always hear how they’ve turned each piece of evidence or part of a story upside down, trying to look at it from all angles. They are fair about...Read full review »
Needanicknameurgh via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/23/22
Interesting topic but this was presented poorly. The narrator even sounds bored of her own story. Perhaps a friendlier upbeat voice would’ve made this podcast bearable.
Lauren NY via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/22
Snarky, smarmy, boring and blatantly biased: not a good combination. Save your agenda for your next cocktail party. Buh Bye
Zydkihevg via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/24/22
Over the last year or so I’ve listened to all seasons of Accused. While some have been more personally interesting than others, I find the organization and delivery of material so easy to follow. I’m an educated person but not an expert on law, crime nor the justice system. The way the podcast is...Read full review »
DebLV101 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/22
These reporters present a compelling story that starts off strong, but in all the true crime podcasts I’ve listened to, I have never been more convinced by the end of listening that a “suspect” is guilty than this one. The narrator smirks her way through many of the episodes, and presents strange...Read full review »
Mikey71080 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/22
I loved seasons 1-3! I even recommended it to several family and friends. But season 4… really?! I am not at all convinced. You keep harping on the concept of *He insists that he’s innocent, so he must be. All of the evidence is crap because mmaaaaayyyybbbbeeee this or that happened.* How...Read full review »

It’s unbelievable the work that this reporter does when investigating a case. She’s smart, thorough, thoughtful and well spoken! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Mcnflower via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/22
This was great until you reduced yourself to make it about race. Last ep I listened to wasn’t even about the case.
high_voltage_crypto via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/22
Wow! So sorry for this whole story. The police really didn’t do their jobs on this one! I feel very bad for Bob! It makes me so mad at the police but I know not to group them all together! There are excellent ones and very unprofessional ones like the police in this case! Prayers for the family...Read full review »
JulesSootie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/22
Still a good listen, but tight roping down the “woke” narrative just about had me ending the season early. Waited awhile for this season...I understand why....kind of a just ok season. 4 rating for overall body of work. 3 for this season
TRIBE1963 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/08/22
Just a bunch of cop hating, reckless speculation, garbage. Don’t bother. Not to mention her voice is ANNOYING !
Maine Flyers Fan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/08/22
I loved Accused, I re listened to the first two seasons which are great, third season was weird, I was v excited about season 4, but what a disappointment, as an Egyptian I am really disgusted by the woke ideology, any black murderer is framed in America, and I am against capital punishment...Read full review »

I probably would enjoy these more if the host didn’t always sound so annoyed and snarky. I find this difficult to listen to.

I am 52 years old and began reading at a very young 4 years old. I had older siblings who didn't like to read, so I would read whatever my mom had laying around. When my Nonna visited she'd bring her old True Crime magazines and at about 7 (I KNOW!), I started reading them. I managed...Read full review »

Having grown up in the Cincinnati area, I have listened to and loved every season. I had no real connections to the first 3 seasons, but the 4th season is different. My friend lived in Blue Ash and when they mentioned officer bray I nearly fell off the couch. He pulled me over when I was 17 and...Read full review »

Amber’s and Amanda’s work is investigative journalism at its best: tell the story as it is, in a way that allows the listener to comprehend, without contributing your own bias. By selecting the right stories to cover, and by carefully avoiding conclusional shortcuts, the makers of Accused present...Read full review »

I’m a public defender and very open to considerations of a wrongful conviction. However the presentation of this defendant’s innocence is unpersuasive, overlooks other explanations of evidence, and generally relies on criticisms unrelated to key evidence. This defendant may be innocent but the...Read full review »

I have been listening to your ads for 4 seasons & I get 1/2 way thru season 4 and I have to subscribe for the rest?!? Not cool. 3 stars because it’s a good podcast….ZERO stars for subscription.
ND in CT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/22
This show is so well done. I love Amber’s voice. I am loving the new season. I am Cincinnati but had never heard of this story. I can’t wait to finish the story.
surrah_22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/22
I began listening to season 1 yesterday and I’m hooked! This is just as good as my favorite unsolved crime podcast, up and vanished. Amber Hunt’s in depth investigation skills are pretty impressive and she definitely keeps me hanging on her every word. I recommend listening for sure! I’m on...Read full review »

So it's interesting, well produced and is a good story. Other than that it's really more a story about an investigation by a reporter rather than true crime.Read full review »
