This is a local story for me and since 2016 99% of the documentaries/podcasts have consisted of reporters interviewing each other or talking to peripheral members of the Wagner or Rhoden families and their friends. Early on the judge in this case issued a gag order so law enforcement and the lawyers involved were not allowed to speak. The genuine witnesses seem to stay off the media's radar too. This show was filmed AFTER George's trial and is the first program to feature BCI agents, local law enforcement and lawyers (including the prosecutor) involved in the case. The gag order has obviously been lifted so this not a show with a bunch of wanna-be-crime-solvers basely speculating. I was very pleased to see this finally.
I've noticed some other reviewers complaining about our governor being featured. DeWine was Attorney General when this happened and the crime was so horrific and such big news that he flew down to Pike county from Columbus the state capital the day the shooting were discovered. DeWine's handling of the recent train derailment disaster is irrelevant to his participation in this investigation.
Maybe because I've been aware of the case since 2016 and have followed all the news coverage, I don't find it difficult to follow how all the victims and perpetrators were related to each other. I thought the show did an excellent job spelling that out. Chris Newcome, Angela Wagner's half brother, provides excellent insight into the workings of the Wagner family, much needed if you want to get your head around the motive for these crimes.
I tuned into this not expecting good things at all and was very pleasantly surprised at the thoroughness and quality of this show. This is the first and so far only program I can recommend to anyone wanting to understand this case.
