Episode Reviews

This is one of those stories where TAL's focus on first-person experiences adds depth and humanity. I find this format, where we look at one family's experience in-depth, so much better than news stories, which tend to be intentionally impartial and focus only on the facts. For most stories, this works fine, but in this case it would be easy to miss how much the facts affect the people involved. Anyway, amazing part one of two.

I was gripped from the early minutes of this episode, especially since I had not come across this story (which apparently made a splash with an extensive written piece a few years back). But I imagine even if you have heard the one about the Klan memorabilia in the police officer’s house, experiencing it via the TAL treatment will add some depth. Fair warning - if you embark on this journey there is a high likelihood that you won’t be able to stop yourself from listening to part 2 ("A City Walks Into an Investigation”).
