  • Summary

  • Kate and Dan make a final effort to identify Dorrough's third, unidentified, victim. What they learn forces them to look again at the way they’ve told this story. They go back to the beginning and, in this telling, Dorrough's story is more normal and at the same time, much more troubling. Dan accepts that he can never see the world in the same way again.

Fascinating and illuminating

This should be heard by everyone. This is so interesting and highlights the problem with abusers. I’ve been abused by men and women but the murderers seem to be men. This isn’t a judgmental series and is excellently produced.

One of the best podcasts I've ever listened to

I can't stand sensationalist true crime documentaries or journalism. This is anything but. Throughput, Dan and Kate try to treat the victims as human beings and with dignity. The killer is not portrayed in a glamorous way nor the killings made to sound exciting. There are no big dramatic re-enactment scenes. They try to get balanced viewpoints from across all possible sources.

What really makes this special is Dan's moment of clarity and the way he and Kate then view and unpick their own work. Leaving the listener in no doubt that they will approach future investigations in a different way but that they, as individuals, have been changed by the experience of this investigation.

This is poignant because it is a huge contrast to the way most journalists, documentary film makers and podcasters report on this kind of crime. The "norm" in unconscious bias that we see and hear all around us.

Towards the end, I was reminded of a Cosmo story many years ago advising women to scream "Fire" not "Rape" because it is too personal a crime and would be ignored, whereas "Fire" will bring people running. This remembrance highlighted the sadness of every aspect of this story, for the victims and their families but also the perpetrator and his family and the circumstances that came together to lead to the deaths of four people.

Unwanted male attention

Good to have family of victims put forward concentrating less on the perpetrator. Also as most woman know to highlight that we as females are or have been focus of unwanted male attention

raw thought provoking content on a sad story

very good content that on reflection can be seen to be evident all around if you don't turn a blind eye. Control or loosening control appears to be powerful coupled with prejudice as highlighted in the content. Excellent presentation team and great questions to those involved from family and establishment.

Really interesting and well told

Really interesting story, told respectfully by the journalists and with great focus on the victims not just the killer.

A very human take on a sad story

Interesting story, which obviously had a lot of research time to pull it all together. Sensitively told and with balance. Good listen.

Excellent

Well told story of an ordinary man who hurt so many. Hurt people hurt people such a true saying, this man was hurt by child abuse in his young years of life. No excuse for the pain and hurt caused by his actions, however a reminder that it's not Monsters that we should fear but the ordinary man/women who is carrying pain inflicted by most likely another hurt person, it eventually spills out on all around them.
Great listen and hopefully part two released soon
