4/10
Terrible portrayal of police work
1 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Have only watched episode one, and will leave it there. The series may get better, but I'll never know. The storyline for episode one was interesting, but the portrayal of the investigators of serial murder were so ridiculous I won't give this any more attention. Top notch investigators are brought in to help the small community with a history of missing young women. These experts interview a suspect and examine his vehicle on the street in the presence of many angry men. Men who later beat the suspect to a pulp as they are led to believe he is the murderer. But of course he is not. Investigators view a victim, teenage girl's video strip tease on laptop in a public restaurant setting. These same people interview a dance instructor, once married to the killer, as she is conducting her dance class, In front of the teenage dance students. And four investigators discuss sensitive homicide information while seated on bar stools in a local tavern. The writers either have no idea about protecting individual rights and privacy, or they intentionally want to portray police members as idiots who have no respect for protocol.
