Dig Deeper - Das Verschwinden von Birgit Meier

It is a well known case in Germany, belonging to the so called Goehrde murders. There was a German TV which was much better than the docu covering the other murders as well. Netflix docus are too long in general, which is killing the suspense.

Good documentary but stretched unnecessarily.

Netflix can make these with in 90 mins but they drag it for no reason. But, anyone who likes watching real crime documentary will like it.

Overall a decent true crime story, the point of view lies entirely with the victims family and investigation and keeps the focus on her. The interviews are relevant and the story flows easily through the episodes. A wild and kind of scary story.

These Documentaries can easily be made in 1 or 2 parts. Netflix is making many 4 to 10 episode series, dragging the show unnecessarily. Speakers repeat same information in same shots as well as throughout the show.

Not only police were incompetent on this case, but also the second investigation team (group of criminal experts) was lackluster in proper investigation and searching the house. Everyone seemed blindly poked around the case. Even the victim's brother was busy for 27 years with his career and life, until he decided to check after retirement. At times he was making conflicting statements/information too!

Don't be fooled into thinking this is your run of the mill true crime story. It's so much more. Everyone should be loved as much as Birgit Meier.

I like to think that my family would have looked for me this hard. Honor to the family & loved ones of Birgit Meier.
