In The Dark

The podcast is well researched, I admire the effort put into getting as much information as possible, follow ups and all the legal hurdles thrown at them to stop the investigation. I am not surprised about the findings, is just disheartening… the lack of accountability, the impunity with which the US military operates.

I just finished season 3, which was also a gateway to seasons 1&2. The whole show is incredible and demonstrates what you can find if you’re willing to pour your heart into a question and really pursue every lead. Whether an unfairly prosecuted man or in the case of season 3 an entire military system of justice, they unfold layer by layer the ways that the system in question loses sight of its stated objective of justice. In season 3 the team unburies the whole story of a grotesque set of killings in Haditha by Marines. The military chose repeatedly to prefer the manifestly guilty marines over the completely innocent victims-men and women and children and babies. It’s a tour de force and worthy of all praise. The story is told grippingly. You can’t wait to know what will next unfold. Truly incredible storytelling. Thank you all.

I’m currently finishing up season 2 and it is absolutely gripping, I haven't been able to listen to anything else. The investigative depth and emotional weight are simply unmatched. Each episode leaves you wanting more. It’s a must-listen for anyone who loves powerful storytelling and true crime done right.

Cant get past 2nd episode. Why would you ask a New York City officer how to investigate an abduction that took place in rural Minnesota?? This report clearly thinks the world begins and ends in NYC.
