This is really made me stop and think, about my uncle who was murdered on an LDS mission in Ireland and how being so young it affected me. And how I should forgive his killer and how I would like that opportunity. It may be too late for some of my family. But I sure would like to try.

I listened to most of Season 1. The podcast does not acknowledge the possibility that the killer is simply lying. He tells his friends that he wants to try killing someone and then does. Once caught, his story is that he was suicidal and only shot other people because he happened to have a mental breakdown. So everyone just buys that? Seems to me that he has every incentive to appeal for sympathy. I wouldn’t give him any.

The best podcast i’ve ever listened to. For me, at this time of my life, forgiveness and making peace were powerful messages. I thank you for that and admire the Snarrs and Evette so very very much. Powerful podcast

As a mother, I kept asking myself, what I would do, who I would be, if I ever went through this experience. And it was a tough question to answer. Tough and painful, and I can’t even IMAGINE what’s it’s been like for the subjects. This was a rough and heartbreaking listen, but it was surprisingly beautiful. Stunning, actually. These people, these families, are absolutely amazing. I’m sending so much love and light to them all, and pray they are continuing to heal.

I’ll say it again, WOW! Been waiting on the release of this one. While listening to the 1st Ep., I was pretty sure I knew where this was going, but what I wasn’t prepared for was myself, a grown man from S Alabama, driving down the road to work and slapping tears out of my eyes, listening to the last couple of minutes of the 1st episode. The forgiveness, and love from this mother, who surely, at one time did not even want to wake up so many mornings, was one of the most touching things I’ve ever heard come out of speakers. And something tells me that we’ve only scratched the surface of “goodness” of Zack’s family.

I truly enjoyed this show, season 1 and 2. Still true crime but with depth, I could honestly listen to 10 more seasons.

This podcast has been so interesting to listen to. I have really enjoyed it!! I think the fact that all of the events happened during my life has really made it so interesting & exciting for me!! I always look forward to the next podcast!!

Forgiveness is overrated. These fools are so concerned with being pious that they’re willing to help a convicted murderer (of a family member, no less) and someone who is obviously a psychopath out of prison, and into another family member’s house? Give me a break. These people are naive fools.

Found this by accident and appreciate the skillful storytelling of the two cases. I don’t completely understand the extent to which the families went but was interested enough to stick with it. Well worth listening.

The Letter is a wonderfully told story of grief and forgiveness but additional bonus episodes provide incredible helpful information that will help listeners understand the impact of their own trauma and process of their on grief and forgiveness. Highly recommend giving The Letter a try.
