I had not heard of this murder/movie before from the 1980s until this podcast came up. It was a little difficult to follow because of the narrator moving back and forth into the different time periods covered within the podcast. Thanks for the final episode with Lainie’s attorney.
Good but not one of the best

The story could have been told more clearly and easier to follow. It was confusing at times to where I’d rewind to see if I missed something. Also, for being such a notorious story, and with a lot of info out there, I would have expected this series to be more compelling. It didn’t really peak my interest or draw me in, yet was interesting enough to where I listened to all the episodes. But I can’t say I would have if I found something more intriguing to listen to.

I couldn’t have agreed more with the previous commenter. It’s hard to follow.
