The host decides to "pretend" she is some sort of detective. She is not. I was a detective, over 50 years ago, so I know of what I speak.
This young woman just has a camera following her around, behaving as though she's done serious research. What she's actually done is to interview people on camera (people on camera - in the 21st century - are suspectible to the dazzle of fame, so they like being talked to. In the first segment, all people are doing are telling Ms. Mosely parts of her past. This is NOT detective work. Putting on a cowboy hat to blend is is absolutely the move of an amateur. A Detective works differently, but this is a tv show, so, instead of serious research, the episodes are fast-changing shots, which some people mistake for genuine excitement. Those of us who actually did the behind-the-scenes work (BEFORE the crime, not after it) would not be wasting time talking to people. She merely rehashes what is already a done deal, since she has the facts of the case. And she dresses up in the first epsiode complete with cowboy outfit. The woman is an idiot, but then, frankly, the people watching this have no smarts about how much she is nothing more than someone telling you a story. And if you like that, and want to believe that she's "getting to the bottom of things" (even thought the perpetrators have already BEEN convicted), you are the kind of person who values entertainment over actual detective work.
If you're watching this, believing it to be anything other than entertainment (which is all it is), you're just buying into the tendency of the younger generation to believe that this person is actually DOING investigating, which has already been done. EVERY fact she tells you would be found in the prosecuting attorney's files. IMDBfan refers to people not liking this as "haters." Whoever they are, I would suggest that they are gullible and ignorant. This is not REMOTELY how true exposes work, and given I was both a detective and a reporter between 1971-1974, the "hater" is the fool who gives this a 10 rating. I cannot stress how foolish her entire show is.
She does nothing. She mugs for the camera, makes statements at moments, muggingm and KNOWING the camera will stay on her, and not pan around the room to witness the people she claims suddenly got "tense" (you notice the camera does not pan around to confirm her 'hypothesis.' It stays in a tight shot ON HER).
She's a con artist of sorts herself, behaving as though SHE is "going to get to the bottom of this." (The "bottom of this" was all done before the trial, which is what to the subject convicted) Her behaviours are those of a not-even-gifted-amateur trying to fake her audience out (since they likely have not heard this story before). She's doing NOTHING, kids.
Pure Fiction. Pure Nonsense. Pure Drivel. But hey, waste your time since, clearly, you dialed this up. Gullible people. Her conclusions are simplistic and obvious.
