Omgggg. Who ARE these girls?? I would not EVEN spend five minutes with them. Watched a psychology-101 video on Tiktok and now they're qualified to just analyze the sh*t out of her. 🙄

Fun drinking game: take a shot every time he says, "y'know't-i-mean?" -- you'll be an alcoholic in 3 minutes FLAT. 🥴🥴🤭

What a complete piece of 💩 raina's husband is. I do NOT understand how so many people can just willingly turn a blind eye to the circumstances. Shame on them. Hope karma takes an interest in these selfish bastards. Smh.

Good GRIEF, I don't blame him for being upset... Those two wouldn't shut UP and let him TALK. Kept trying to "speak" to the recordings/audience instead of just letting him taaalllkk. (Sorry. Just reeeally wanted to hear him, and totally felt his frustration.)

Some of the content in the earlier episodes has changed, it's not the same. Why have you gone back and changed and edited some material? Their all out of order also!

soooo tawny doesn't seem very believable just for the record. however true or not...she should have been vetted and put on the stand. Amy doesn't seem believable either though considering there was 100 millions times/ways/opertunites to cry out and get to safety and she never even tried and is very good at pretending to not be scared unless you ask her step dad of course..

Folks might be interested to know a LOT of information has been conveniently left out of this podcast, including the fact that Ivan's DNA was found on the waistband of the famous jeans. Full trial transcripts and frank discussion of the TRUTH available on the Question the Case Podcast FB group.

It's almost cringy listening to ivan and his mom spitballing a defense. We need to find out who did this, that would get you out. Ya, um, what's your plan for that exactly? It's also a little sad because if they pin you as the guy and you don't have the money for a proper defense, you are screwed whether you did it or not. It's not the public defenders fault either because they simply can't put enough time into their cases because of the amount of cases they get piled on their desk. They are oftentimes meeting their client during their arraignment.
