So great
Best podcast since Serial and Cold. Extremely well done and researched. Everything flows perfectly. My jaw dropped at the end of Ep 1 season 2. I don’t understand how a mother could do this to her son, isn’t interrogating immediate family a conflict of interest?! Incomprehensible and disgusting she would do that to her own child. Season 1 is also amazing. Bingeworthy podcast!
Great podcast
Great podcast. Just a correction. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police ( RCMP) is not the FBI of Canada. It is Canada’s national police servicing smaller cities and communities. Most major cities have their own city police forces. I understand that this is an American podcast but the producers should do their homework and relay accurate information.
I do look forward so some resolution to this case one day.
Great podcast!
Jason’s mom is the biggest idiot on the planet. She says she was “protecting” her kid. The fact that she can still stand on that principle is beyond incomprehensible. And give me a break for those in this podcast who feel empathy for her because they say she thought she was doing the right thing. It was all ego for her. She wanted approval and appraisal from that dimwit detective.
