Customer Reviews
Terrible and inspiring
How awful the and backwards the criminal justice system is but how inspiring Carrie Lowe is. Excellent journalism. Highly recommended listening. Five stars.
Compelling
A horrible crime followed by a shocking investigation (or you could say lack of) is rage inducing to listen too. Maggie Rahr is a great journalist who has a real talent in making podcasts, the episodes are well produced and leave you wanting to hear more. Carrie Low is an incredible person who has advocated for herself all the way under the most terrible circumstances and makes you worry for other victims out there who are unable to do the same.
I’m guessing the one star reviews are from the police department :)
