Catching Killers

They interleave two different cases. You have to take notes to keep them separated. Producers please don't do anymore like this. I have to look each case up on the internet to figure out what happened.

This idiot found a cash cow. The first episode of this series makes him out to be a hero, while really, we all thought he was an idiot.

The murders were treated as inconsequential by the police, and the taskforce a taxpayer-paid for joke.

Podcast level narrators/ story telling

Even though the stories are mostly brutal but the way it unfolds diminished the violence. What's left is more of story telling and some emotional release.

If you are a detail seeker, this series won't satisfy you. But it works as a good foundation if you want to dig into the case.

The last episode "happy face killer" really bugs me. The DAs did not do their jobs well and were misled by a grandmother but later furious about her because (the DAs believed) the other death could have been stopped.

I mean, what the hell? This DA did not do his job well and still do not face the responsibility his owned.

The later-confessed killer did not appear in the first case. With or without being misled, the DA had zero chance finding the true killer.

The DA's job is to find the truth, no matter how deeply it is hidden. Clearly he thinks he did wonderfully but in fact he did not.

Wonder if he also put other innocent people behind the bar.

The Happy Face Killer case proves that DAs and Cops need to start facing jail time for convicting innocent people. No more "I wish we had gotten this right" crap!!

This was much needed. Finally, a documentary about known serial killers. I hope that they're going to keep going and make more seasons with more episodes.
