    When a new manager was gunned down at work during a narrow window of time when most of the staff should have been on lunch break, investigators honed in on two possible suspects among the victim’s employees. To this day, the convicted killer and his supporters are convinced police picked the wrong one, but a key piece of evidence led the jury to a different conclusion.

Great stories and storyteller

I really enjoy Kylie and the stories she tells. I love that some are unsolved and some have a resolution. It’s so nice to actually have some resolution with some of the cases she shares.
Kylie has a knack for storytelling and I’m loving this show as a whole.

great most of the time but...

Normally, I like - no, make that, love - your podcasts. I am well on my way to listening to every single episode available (not in any particular order). I've given you tons of five stars but this episode (Elizabeth Jewett murder) was a real disappointment. I actually stopped listening part way through because this episode was drowning in your obvious political leanings. I get it, you are opposed to, as you put it, the "criminalization of sex work." I happen to disagree but that is really neither here nor there. We are each entitled to our opinions. but I - along with, I wager, 99.9% of your audience- listen to be entertained not proselytized. Just a little food for thought from a diehard fan.

great true crime podcast obsession

The cases are presented with respect and very little extrernal opinion interjection. You feel connected to the cases by the narration. Well worth the listen or binge

Being from the North East this podcast is great

I was able to binge this entire season so far non stop. I found this on audible too. I found episode 1 to be a great amount of time at around 30 mins . Each episode is at that amount of time. Perfect . Please keep up the great work.
