I'm listening to the *dreading * podcast now.
The real life crime is way worse than in the movie ๐ง
omg, she has the flattest affect I have ever heard. Just zero emotion.
She's fucked up. Like, beyond rehab... Which I guess is why they're never letting her out.
I really enjoy dreading for true crime; they're comprehensive and extensive with their research, and are always respectful of the victims first and foremost, talking about how they were real people who had families and friends who loved them. He never shies away from calling things what they are; even though this trial happened in the 90s, he calls what she did 'sexual abuse', which it 100% was, which at the time wasn't really recognised as being rape, which it is.
Anyway, she's just a fucked up person. So utterly deadpan. She corrects her defense and the prosecution and comes off so fkn bitchy. Her story just doesn't make sense, and she's too stupid to realise it doesn't at all exonerate her.
