Interesting
Interesting and informative story, and, in contrast to others, I like the narrator's voice. It's unusual, quirky, and appealing.
I wouldn’t mind being called a sqeebademo!
Always happy to see new episodes available. I especially appreciate hearing the cases that have not been covered hundreds of times already.
I remember...
This horrific crime. I was 15 and lived in Montgomery County. So glad the police didn’t give up. RIP
