there's an old preacher here that helped his son kill his gf in the 80s and they got away with it and they harassed the son while he ate a burger down the street from my house on the ID show "Killer Unknown" it was pretty compelling

just fascinating that murderers eat burgers for lunch like everyone else

he's an it guy. I don't think they've made any arrests still.

They’re all just like “doesn’t seem like this person did it? Well, what if we told you they’re poor and also what their IQ is”

I will at least admit I follow this stuff for no good altruistic reason unlike those commenting on the crime board I'm following this case on who said that rainbow at gabbys murder site was the spirit of caylee anthony protecting her

Yeah I stopped watching these midway thru a couple episodes of making a murderer but I heard they were really tough on one of the guys at the hotel in LA where the lady strangely died. They are going to have a Jenny Jones situation soon (which there is also a netflix doc about)
At least we have

the 'serious' true crime community has big problems with the netflix docs, yeah. and a lot of podcasts/youtubers that are really exploitive or have been caught plagiarizing

i won’t speak to like, “the true crime community “ at large because im not into it enough to make definitive statements but at least for me solving the mystery via available details is kind of what it’s about. i would like to abolish the prison system etc but the psychology of it, ppl act in predictable ways when they’re lying, it is usually a person close to the victim, etc is just interesting to me

mostly though i don’t have the stomach to follow the current/unsolved ones. coincidentally my first visit to like true crime reddit, no bullshit, a series of murders like 1.5 hrs away was the first post, there was a cellphone video of a guy that was largely believed to be the one killing all of them, he was initiating these crimes on like a nature trail, and then i closed the tab and felt thoroughly creeped out/scared for like 2 weeks

also interesting to note those boards (and true crime "fans" in general) are like 90% women and it's almost always some star trek bro or my dad type moralizing about this subject

that's good for a few pages right

let’s make fun of this woman who was murdered by her boyfriend by changing her last name to a vaguely similar-sounding brand of corn chips. hilarious!

should mention i don't watch any of those documentaries or listen to any Tr00 Crime podcasts at all because yeah, sometimes (let's be real, most of the time) people go about these things with an obscene lack of tact or consideration for the surviving family/loved ones

unfeeling =/= gawking at this person's circumstances either imo

yeah I listened to the first year or so of my favorite murder but had to stop once "murderinos" became a thing and you'd get live episodes where they'd be like "and he strangled her for 4 hours" and the audience would start cheering

I get the appeal of true crime- we're all fascinated by the darker parts of reality and there's always the "what if this happened to me?" element that seems like a relatively healthy survival instinct- but "true crime fandom" or whatever kind of creeps me out at this point and a lot of what I see from this world is a type of pro-police pop-psychology that just reinforces a lot of trashy tabloid bullshit by giving it this faux news makeover

it's true, the thread title is not funny

some reasonably good dialogue in the thread itself, though

seems like a big part of it would be the mystery element too, right? like getting to play sort of armchair detective? i dont follow this stuff cause it's too much for me but i could see that element being a big appeal of it for me

MFM is the worst. all they do is read wikipedia articles* and get people to cheer for the death penalty



*wikipedia is a really bad source for true crime too. just terrible research all around

I binge the first 48 when I'm really depressed or fuck up in life because it makes me go "at least I didn't fuck up that bad, my problem is probably fixable"

you’re probably joking, or maybe the netflix things really do that, but neither of these details is relevant at all to identifying a murderer

actually yeah the mysterious hotel death one spent a good couple minutes talking about skid row and i was getting really pissed, like all true crime ppl worth a damn know that this is completely pointless and not related to the crime!!!!

imagine someone in your family being murdered and then on top of that you now have to deal with a parasocial relationship with a group of people online when all you want to do is grieve

I'd imagine most people generally check out of the world at this point, at least for awhile.

i should clarify: adnan killed hae min, but the case was not and cannot be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. so, morally guilty, legally not guilty.
