Captivating
This podcast was great! I just have two things that I feel like were not addressed in the trial episode that were mentioned in prior episodes. 1. I thought when they found Micah’s arm it had zip ties on it? Was this brought up during trial since Matthew Queen said he was killed at his house? Why would he have zip ties on his arms if he was killed prior to going to garage? 2. If they recovered Micah’s skull can’t they determine if cause of death was blunt force trauma from a weight vs. a gunshot wound? I feel like these could have helped prove premeditation.
The newscaster voice is off putting
I can’t stand these true crime podcasts that sound like an endless news segment. Want to know about this story though so I’m going to try to stick with it.
You shouldn’t have to pay !
You shouldn’t have to pay to listen to podcasts. I quit listening to other podcasts. Because I I paid for everything that I like to listen to. I would only be working to pay for subscription services and would be living in a tent in the woods.
