Review of Three - Everything that’s wrong with true crime.

Everything that’s wrong with true crime.

☆

“This show takes very odd turns into some really irresponsible places. There are at least two detectives interviewed who admitted on the podcast to doing some outrageous misconduct and one of them even admitted to repeated instances of police brutality unrelated to the topic. The creators cast these officers in a very sympathetic light and don’t question anything they say, and this type of bad reporting is present throughout every interview included in the series. There is almost no evidence or testimony from the case included. It was as if the creators thought that because there was a verdict and conviction in the case that their speculation about the murderers’ motives were just as valid as anything that could be found in court records. The whole production seems like an attempt to make the perpetrators in this case look as monstrous and inhuman as possible. They do this through the creator’s speculation about the three girl’s social media posts and through the speculation of the people the creators interviewed and present all of it as fact. This might have been an interesting new take on a very popularly known true crime story if they looked at the murder through the lense of social media what role it might have played, but the only message I got was ‘social media bad’.”
