Three
After midnight on July 6th, 2012, three teenage girls walked into the thick Appalachian woods somewhere along the Mason-Dixon line. Hours later, under the glow of a nearly full moon, only two walked out. The very last time Dave and Mary Neese saw their only child Skylar was in a grainy black-and-white video. In it, she's sneaking out of her ground-floor bedroom in the middle of the night, her purse over her shoulder, her brown hair swinging as she hurries across the small parking lot to a waiting car. What happened to Skylar Neese has become gothic American lore: the odd girl out in a vicious teenage triangle. But in the ten years since that fateful night beneath the West Virginia stars, a fuller portrait of what happened has emerged. From award-winning journalists Justine Harman and Holly Millea comes a gripping 10-part series featuring Skylar's family, closest friends, and law enforcement who lived the case—and are still living it.

I grew up in Morgantown, WV and have resided here for the majority of my life. From the day the Neese family discovered that their only child never came home through the most recent parole hearing for Rachel Shoaf, I have diligently followed this case. I have had the privilege to meet several of the noteworthy individuals in this narrative. During the early days of speculation and gossip on the Rumor Mill board, many conjectures and theories ran rampant. Everyone had an opinion. Yet the police, FBI, Mary and Dave remained silent. Until they were unable to remain silent any further. Fractures began to occur in the stories and lives of two that Skylar’s parents could never have imagined. Mary took to social media in an attempt to put pressure on two who deviously claimed to be Skylar’s closest allies. Mary’s campaign of guilt and shame directed towards the vile duo worked. Never doubt the strength and conviction of a mothers love. Shoaf broke and broke deeply. Subsequently, even though Eddy would claim she was not guilty, the evidence would prove otherwise. The malicious two believed that they finished Skylar’s story on that hot July night in 2012 because they “didn’t want to be friends with her anymore.” Yet, they did not triumph, Skylar Neeses story lives on. She will continue to touch and change the lives of all who know her story. I recognize this because I am one. As are you.

I could NOT get past the whistling sound that played so much in episode one. Drove my dogs and I nuts and I cannot listen to this story because of it.
If you love ads this podcast is for you

Decent podcast, FAR too many ads. Simply the most frustrating amount of ads in a single podcast episode I have ever listened to.
