TRUE CRIME
COMPLETE SERIES

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.

Tragic and sad story, well told.

Young people need much more education about acceptance and processing their emotions. The brains of teenagers are not fully formed and they should not act on emotion because it could ruin their life.

This podcast provides an in depth look at a case that is plagued with questions, and allows for various perspectives on what happened that led to the murder of a teenage girl. However, there are some issues: most importantly, the perspective of one of the killers’ close family friends allowed for victim blaming. This podcast aired, quote, “if she [skylar, the victim] was really having all those problems with the girls… why would she go with them?” Why is the podcast seeking to elevate the voice of someone who would blame Skylar for her demise? Additionally, some of the people interviewed did not offer anything of note (for example, the neighbor of Rachel). The podcast could have been shorter and more interesting by eliminating these. My final comment is that there was a lot of turning up and turning down my volume to try and understand what was being said. We have the technology and most of these were recent interviews so I’m not sure why so much of the recording was unclear.
The music in the background

The music in the background was strange. It didn’t match up with the dialogue or the storyline. It made the podcast seem like a Charlie Brown movie and not based on real events.
Compelling story, production could be better

This is a very compelling and disturbing. Well worth a podcast. Things that could have been improved: The pauses, poor quality recordings, people rambling about second-hand information, narrators’ tones of voices using over dramatic story telling, the out of order timeline, all made it hard to follow and took away from the impact of this horrific crime.
