Three
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.

Well Produced and Laid Out

Just binge listened to the whole 1st season. Very thorough in their telling of the story and how they included Skylar’s parents was such an important part of the story.
Well done.

Well done story, thoughtful. Among the what-ifs, the one thing that is never mentioned is the impact living in a society more accepting of gay and queer people might have had on the teens’ decision making. The motive - fear of being outed - would have been eliminated.
Good reporting on a sad story

This podcast is well paced and I liked how the narrator stuck to Skylar’s parents and kept them in the forefront of the story. What they could lose is the Ashley Flowers weirdly enthusiastic off tone ads opening nearly every episode. 😒

Incredibly tragic story that’s poorly told. The narrative thread devolves into a bunch of bad-quality recordings of people rambling on about this or that. A series in desperate need of editing
