Great! But came across biased & naive....
Excellent podcast, format, research and presentation. Loved it, thoroughly entertaining! However, I did feel the narrator was slightly naive in her judgment of Adnan. She was very judgmental and almost sympathetic in regards to his meek appearance and docile demeanor as a 17 year old which lead me to feeling she had a bias for his innocence from the first episodes. In the end after all the time, research and resources used to review and put together this podcast, it pretty much supported everything detectives had already used to arrest and convict Adnan. I’m not sure if this podcast did any good or bad for this case, it certainly stirred up unpleasant emotions from the victims family and in the end its not like a “smoking gun” or radical new evidence was presented. (The girl in the library is interesting at best, but its not anything SOLID like forensic DNA or surveillance video.) The podcast went to great lengths to prove Adnan’s possible innocence, but did almost nothing to explain who might have done it then? It’s almost like the podcast was so focused on Adnans innocence opposed to finding out what really happened. I think the narrator not having much as far as street smarts (not a bad thing or a flaw) played heavy into her bias not believing someone who appears so innocent as Adnan could have possibly done this. Anyone is possible of anything. That’s important to remember in life. Not saying Adnan is guilty, but I'm a firm believer in Occam’s razor....Read full review »

What a commentary on the difficulty of seeking justice for the death of girl.

I don't know why I haven't found a podcast that uses this long form format to tell one (already very compelling) true crime story. Does another not exist? Either way, after the first two episodes I'm all in.Read full review »
