Strangely put together
I think this story is really interesting at its core but I listen to a lot of true crime and I thought this was really mishandled and hard to listen to. The first thing that bothered me is the long seemingly unedited clips of really bad quality audio - it needed to be cut and more clearly explained because otherwise it was just really difficult and borderline annoying to listen to and follow. I also found the interviews with the survivors tone deaf. Obvious, thoughtless, insensitive questions that seemed to just be mining their trauma. I prefer these podcasts, especially because they handle such sensitive subject matter, to be handled delicately and by someone who has a thoughtful and compelling point of view. If I wanted this type of thing I’d just listen to Dateline instead.

The local male reporter who is often interjecting on the podcast has the most annoying voice in the world. Should have considered that when making something that people can only listening to/no video to distract from his super intense inflections.

This is an important look at how and when parents can be held responsible for their child’s terrible deeds. The parents in this situation were held accountable for their wrong doing. The victim impact statements were very moving and a deeply important part of the story.
