“I’m enjoying the story. I plan to go back and listen to season 1 then to #3
The story is intriguing. Vaughn’s mother should be ashamed of herself for disparaging her DIL. Pretty obvious that she was a big part of the problem. I felt like the narrator was bias from the beginning. There were...”Read full review »

“This is specifically regarding season 2 Firstly I found the parents have permanent roses-colored glasses, representing their sons’ childhood like a missing chapter from Tom Sawyer. Here’s a tip, running with the fishing pole isn’t “innovative” it’s taking an easy action and making it absurdly...”Read full review »

“I think the low star reviews might be the family who wasn’t willing to speak with you. I think you didn’t just raise reasonable doubt, you proved his innocence. Chris is a victim, not a criminal. I hope that his new pro bono lawyers are able to get him released.”

“Never have I ever listened to a show or podcast where someone sets out to show someone has been wrongfully convicted and not agreed with the journalist. Bc it seems usually people do fair unbiased reporting. NOT here! They call blood splatter junk science but rely on the 1 thing and that 1 thing...”Read full review »

“Chris’ family is misogynistic and it is evident they resent educated people and they put her down at every turn. “Kim couldn’t cook, Kim was sedentary, insinuating Kim trapped” Chris. Insinuating Kim had loose morals by getting pregnant. They do not seem to have a very objective view of their own...”Read full review »

“So the recent 1 ⭐️ reviews this podcast received, honestly at the beginning, I felt the same way!! I had never heard of this case, but from the beginning ‘I knew he was guilty’. I wondered how they could be saying some of the things they were saying. I stuck with it though and completed the...”Read full review »

“Horrible victim blaming. The killer’s family blames the murders wife and her family for their death. The killers family loves to hunt and kill but there is no way their “loving son” could kill his family. The killers family’s educational insecurity was very revealing. They clearly hated the...”Read full review »

“I have listened to this podcast twice. I have recommended to friends. I at first thought, Wow he did it… and then the story developed and my mind was changed. Having a medical background if you haven’t had/witnessed an adverse reaction to a medication then you have no idea how crazy it can get.”

“It kept me intrigued, but also soooo frustrated. There was so much left out. You can’t tell me that no one questioned that he listened to all the evidence and THEN created a story to account for it years later? And she started this based on his eyes in the mugshot? Am I seeing the same photo?...”Read full review »

“Yes. This is told from 1-side and 1-side only. Because the other side refuses to participate!! The podcasters do their best to present the most fair information they can, given there’s only the Vaughn’s allowing interviews.
Listen to how it’s presented. It’s about as fair as it could be.”

“One of the first statements in the podcast is, “Could Chris be innocent?” If you’ve already made up your mind that’s fine, but it’s not fair to rate this podcast on your mindset knowing the premise from the beginning. Most of the reviews state they rated it low because this podcast gives both...”Read full review »
