I prefer a complex look at the real life human beings the victims were too. It's a reminder that we are all susceptible to having our lives lost in messed up ways, that we're susceptible to bad detective work, that no matter who you are, you deserve justice.

I constantly think of Princess Weekes' video "True Crime and the Theatre of Safety". "The theatre of true crime is to tell the tales of good, dead, clean women. Not messy ones... If she can breathe, she can lie."

I constantly remind myself, people are messy. And I would prefer true crime media that keeps it realistic.

I really liked the Netflix miniseries "Unbelievable" and I also listened to the This American Life episode "Anatomy of Doubt" where we hear the victim and her family and friends talk about what happened. It's a classic tale of how justice works in America, and we should feel uncomfortable about how common it is and how we so consistently fail victims.
