Customer Reviews
Excellent reporting!
Beth follows the events with excellent questions. Very well done!!!
Awful accents
The WORST sound quality ever, and the southern Mississippi drawls of the accused and others are so thick I couldn’t understand a word they said.
‘I’m a lawyer’
How do you know someone is a vegan? They take every opportunity to tell you so. Just like a lawyer does. Every time. *eyeroll*
