Girl in the Picture

A young woman dies in an Oklahoma City from the injuries she has received in a hit and run. The doctors and police suspect foul play, but it isn't until they don't find out that she isn't who she says she is that the mystery begins to unfold. Slowly, but surely, the horror of her life unfolds.

This is one of the best, and most well constructed, documentaries, I have ever seen. The director tells the story in the chronology that the police and the FBI a discover it. The result is the stomach churning story of sociopath and the damage he has done.

See it because his victims deserve to have their stories told, but, beware, that is disturbing.

Netflix crime documentaries are usually too long, and spread needlessly over multiple episodes. This feature-length doc is too short, and could have done with an extra couple of hours too tell more about the real parents, Michael's possible father, and the little brother "Philip" who was abducted with the three sisters at the beginning, and who (according to Wikipedia) showed up in 2019.

A very good documentary, nonetheless, and one that I will remember for a long time.

When a young woman's body is found in Oklahoma, her identity is a fake one, her story, harrowing.

I'm a little late watching this, I was a little put off by the long running time, being so used to hour long documentaries, it was a big mistake, this was compelling viewing, the time flew by.

I think this is one of those stories that will love with me for some time, it's thought provoking, remarkable and chilling, what they poor young woman endured will quite literally break your heart. Nobody should have to suffer, ensure and experience what she did, she also seemed such a wonderful person.

Very well made and edited, it flowed incredibly well. This really was a triumph, a story that needed to be told.

9/10.

One of those stories that shocks you with every twist, its wild and almost unbelievable. A well put together documentary with relevant interviews and a smooth rhythm to the storytelling. Sad, poignant, and just incredible (in a really disheartening way).

Who was Michael's father? DNA testing ruled out Warren Hughes. Who was Megan's father? It seems odd if Sharon was never allowed much freedom that she could have had 2 pregnancies by other men.
