“When the podcast was announced, it seemed promising. I thought that Rubenhold was going to address some of the more problematic and vague details of The Five and make more of an attempt to flesh things out. What we got, though, was basically 15 episodes of a very smug and self-righteous Rubenhold lashing out at her critics and those who don’t agree with her, all the while doubling down on the claims she made in The Five. While she’s totally entitled to her opinion and her claims, it was the way she reacted to feedback about her work that is mostly the issue. Rubenhold was harassed by edgelords like Trevor Marriott and 4 or 5 other jerks, which should not have happened, and most Ripperologists condemned this. Most of her issue with the community is that they did not agree with her premise and they had questions about the work. Really, what disillusioned me is how she lashed out and bullied critics and reviewers on social media when the book was first released, and then used the podcast as another means of doing so. The way Rubenhold treated Patricia Cornwell, who had done nothing to her, was gross and uncalled for. But from what I have seen, this is Rubenhold’s pattern of behavior toward people who don’t agree with her or who don’t offer the feedback she prefers. At the end of the day, it’s not the work itself. It’s the way Rubenhold chose to treat people who didn’t agree on her, and this behavior only reflects upon her and shows the public who she is as a person. Hopefully she has reflected on this over the past year or so and has tried to do better. Time will tell.”

“I love true crime stories the focus more on the victims then the monsters that kill them and this does just that!”

“A well made podcast that seems to want to challenge all the previous outcomes of investigations using a narrative of today, and not offering anything new in terms of the real issues other than a blinkered vision that the Ripper victims were not prostitutes. This probably is the only avenue a...”Read full review »

“Full of falsehoods, half truths, and biased to the way that Hallie incorrectly sees the world.
I am not a ripperologist but I’m well read enough to know Hallie has skipped or disregarded evidence to compete her narrative. It is a good show but for the most part it should be stated as mostly...”Read full review »
