Sasha Reid and the Midnight Order

I love true crime. This show is fast turning into one of the very best out there. Cheers to Sasha Reid and her smart, thoughtful team for spotlighting crime victims who would otherwise be forgotten. I was once asked by a male friend, "why are women so obsessed with serial killers?" I think many people are interested in learning more about what makes a serial killer tick. For women, we can readily and easily empathize with women who have been targeted and murdered by a serial killer. We know it could have easily been us. We also watch to look out for the signs of a psychopath. Knowledge is power. Sasha and her team are bringing that in droves.

And i am on the edge of my seat, and I am outraged. I don't want to tell the narrative here, no spoilers, but the disregard for the lives of women deemed inconsequential is criminal. Sasha Reid and the Order are doing essential work to unearth truth and to value the lives of these women. It is important to watch this story. The director uses the sweeping landscape, vast vistas, in a way that contrasts with the small, hidden world these women inhabited. They were invisible to mainstream society, and went uncounted, unreported, and unavenged. The doc highlights the few people who were willing to dig further over the decades in which the story unfolds. We'll see in episode 4 (I hope) that they have not done this work in vain.

Truly a ridiculous and quasi unethical enterprise. Pure conjecture and pseudoscience preying on victimized parties and correspondingly the community. I don't know how this got made and why Disney/Hulu or whomever financed it.

I will guarantee that the accreditations, alleged expertise, and professional designations that these people purport to have will not stand up to scrutiny by proper governing bodies. I challenge anyone to contact the RCMP or any other of the policing and professional association to question the stated merit of the "Midnight Order".

Of most concern is how predatory these ladies and backers are on the clearly vulnerable and grieving families of the all to real victims.

This series explores the how and why a group called THE MIDNIGHT ORDER delves into unsolved murders and missing persons, crimes usually committed against women and members of marginalized communities. THE MIDNIGHT ORDER is comprised of talented and dedicated women who take on the task of investigating behind the buried truths in police reports and the pseudo-factual snippets on line and in other media, aiming to uncover what really happened.

The truths uncovered by THE MIDNIGHT ORDER can and do often reveal defects in police investigations and a system that is denying justice and closure to the families of the victims.

The women of THE Midnight Order have the education, experience and grit to re-investigate theses crimes with fresh eyes and a fresh perspective.

This is a compelling series. We need a second season with Sasha Reid and the Midnight Order.

Such a great documentary. A testament to determination and also so very much compelling. Makes you ask yourself, "Why is this falling to a civilian?". However, most of the time you are glued to the true crime stories and the details revealed. The filmmaking is complimentary to the subject matter, enhancing, not sensationalizing. This is a story documented, Not a documentary in search of a story or subject. Adding in the seriousness of their work, and it all adds up to informative, rewarding viewing. Highly Recommend. BTW, their work cannot solely be encapsulated by one season. Please bring on Season 2...
