Just so you are aware...Michelle Carter is from Plainville, MA and Tiana lived in Plainville, CT. Those are two different places!

I hate these parents. Ethan could have received help if his parents were more attentive.

I just find it hard to believe that Rajeeve didn’t suspect his father due to the murder was such a random act, his family disowned him, and the cultural component.

Of course this was a hate crime! And that stupid remark about Christopher Newsom's rape ("were they homosexual")?! Rape isn't about sex, it's domination - the worst thing you could do to a heterosexual man.

Definitely not victim blaming, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to have your underage child’s partner living with you under any circumstances!

Barely 10 minutes in and it's already bye-bye! Those hosts fell hook, line and sinker for Jasmine's BS just like everyone else. Disappointing!

I agree with Meghan on pretty much every point she made. A bit of a cringy episode to listen to. I hope someone else took over the prison project because it’s a shame that the dogs and inmates lost out because of someone’s really poor decision.

Sorry but if I didn’t have other kids, this POS Lori would be dead. No way I would be able to control myself if she is at my door bating me.
