There was not nearly enough about the victim and yet a ton about the murderer and how she should be released at some point because she made one mistake. I’m sorry, did I miss at any point during this entire thing her showing one tiny bit of remorse?

I really appciate podcasts that cover lesser known cases. I think everyone’s story deserves for be told. But I could not finish this. The details were gruesome and I physically could not listen. I understand some details are necessary, but they went a little too far.

Very gruesome but thanks for including the soundtracks of the various persons involved (police, detectives, coroner, psychologists) as well as the extended family members of the victim and defendant. Sadly the judge was correct when saying the family is ultimately responsible — not “the system”;...Read full review »

This story is vile and shocking, but that aside, the title of the podcast and the episodes are all in poor taste. Some sensitivity to the victim and his family would have gone a long way here. That poor mother already endured the worst thing in the world, hopefully she doesn’t decide to listen to...Read full review »

On top of the level of gruesomeness in this crime, it’s hard to listen to her aunt insist she is not evil. I’m sorry but I don’t care how much trauma a person goes through these are not the actions of a heart that isn’t evil. And besides, her trauma other than optional drug use was not that high...Read full review »

Abandoned this; it somehow makes a terrible story dull, the sound is dreadful, and it doesn’t seem to know what it’s trying to tell us. To avoid.

This podcast is the worst of true crime podcasts. Sensationalist material. The only thing that I liked is the invention of a new tongue twister: say crock pot box 3 times fast.
Unholyoke via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/11/24
I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts that share details about gruesome crimes while respecting the victim and victim’s family. This is not one of those podcasts. Episode 1 was okay, though it definitely included gruesome details. But I couldn’t even get past episode 2. So much was repeated,...Read full review »

I find it very difficult to hear and understand what’s been said in the recordings because of the audio quality and I wish there was a transcript I could look up. That would really help.
ned-sanders via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/12/24
The sound keeps cutting out half way through each episode very annoying
Kat Battle via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/12/24
I'm not a very sensitive person but the title is awful for the nature of this crime, shame on those who approved it. Was it created by someone from Dateline? Aside from the repetitive recordings, this was told well. It was straight forward and not opinionated. In regards to the court...Read full review »

Literally just graphic details of a guy who was dismembered. Wondery is utter trash
Ranimal Fanimal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/24
There is a lot of repetition in the episodes, and then the narrator also regularly summarises the audio that came immediately before. Too much padding that it got boring. Bummer.
@amyyogabizcoach via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/31/23
It was good except the facts were repeated over and over again especially with finding the head at bottom of stairs.
mikec2227 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/23
You can listen to this podcast for free on other channels! Won’t pay a dime to listen to something that others put out for free!
fghhjgfddd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/23
Disgusting filth!
@J_W via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/01/23
I’m giving one star for sound quality & editing. Another star for being detailed oriented. If you are into listening to a trail, the trail coverage is all there. Here’s the thing, you hear the entire crime story in the first episode. This isn’t a crime podcasts that leads up to anything, with...Read full review »

Played first episode then discovered future episodes cost money. Plenty of other free podcasts available out there. Goodbye
DaveFromOz_777 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/03/23
Be warned, the details of this case are shockingly grotesque and the podcast is very clear about that. But it feels like they just took the recordings and edited them together. It’s interview recordings and courtroom recordings and not a lot else.
9LivestoRigel5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/23
This story is gruesome. This podcast tells the details of a man murdered by a pal who was severely mentally ill and should be locked up for the rest of her life. This documentary was well detailed and certainly not for the weakened stomach listeners. My stars are based on the organization of the...Read full review »

Repetitive. Could have been one long episode.
hdrfxgdf h via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/23
The episodes were way too repetitive. I usually binge podcasts on my way to and from work, and even hearing the episodes a week apart as it debuted it made me want to fast forward. This whole thing could have been two good episodes, three tops. Also, the amount of airtime given to Taylor’s cousin...Read full review »

I’ve noticed if you see Wondery attached to a podcast it’s a solid bet it will be awful. This was no exception.
Vince_Versa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/23
I listen to true crime podcasts all day, every day (probably not good for my mental health, but...). The crime details don't usually make me cringe to the point of turning off the podcast, but THIS ONE is seriously gruesome, disturbing, and flat out disgusting. Maybe because it was sexual in...Read full review »

Seems to be running water or something during some clips, strange distortion in others, very distracting
Eloise 26 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/24/23
Makes me think of tv dramas in the early 2000’s when you had to watch several minutes of recap every episode, except this show does it throughout each episode. Bad call in an era where many people binge-listen. I kept thinking I had accidentally clicked on the prior episode, every time!
missmyraj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/23
I swear wherever the host Paula Barros pops up, it’s sure to be quality. Sacred Scandal (which she produced and traveled to Ukraine to investigate for), Cold Case Files, and now her work with the legendary Law & Crime folks. She’s becoming a true crime fixture. A singular voice. One to trust....Read full review »

Imagine how horrifying it would be to be Shads family member & see this title. He was a human being, & we need to respect him as such. Truly disgusted to see the lack of tact from such a huge platform.
GirrrlRae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/23
Great narration and nice to hear from people who knew them. Solid stuff.
jarbzy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/23
This shocking story is told masterfully through this podcast. I could not stop listening! From the exclusive interviews to eerie and intense descriptions of the crime … this is a must listen!
sierragillespie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/14/23
Interesting case but the interrogation tapes are really unclear.
hobbysox via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/13/23
This is such a horrible title, showing nothing but disrespect for the victim and his family. Do better.
idsjsdx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/23
Listening to the first episode, there is already too much filler material, such as long lists of material found at the crime scene and exhaustive decried police procedures. They do little to advance the story.
slow_learner_2019 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/12/23
Amazing attention to detail. The host is also fantastic. Horrific story but i thought this was really well told.
ermxx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/23
I kinda like this so far , but there seems to be a slap back echo added to all the interview tapes / it’s making it almost impossible to understand.
Richplezo via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/09/23
Wondery produced another great podvasy.
Teon77 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/23
“Something went wrong. Please try again later.” Is the error message I have gotten over the last couple days. Anyone else?? I can play other series from Wonderly and other podcast. But not this one. 😩
Miss. Listern via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/23
This story is nuts. I love how much detail law and crime gives us. The host is solid and easy to listen to!
