factual

Living in Murfreesboro I can attest that this is a true story, it was heartbreaking. I'm so very glad that changes have been made.

Vocal fry is too much

My husband and I enjoyed the story line, but could not get past the narrator's vocal fry. We tried our best for about 10 minutes, and gave up from utter annoyance. I look forward to the day the vocal fry trend is over!!!
