It lost a star because it leaves you open ended. Which drives me bananas. We, as in the viewers KNOW who did this. The only people I have sympathy for are the wrongly accused in jail (who then, SPOILER ALERT, died), their families AND the victims. It's one of those docs that makes you keep shaking your head, but you THEN realize this wasn't a murder in the 1980s THIS WAS twenty years ago!? How or WHY would an officer with experience and merit handle a crime scene in such a reprehensible way? ... apologies to jump around like this but TWINS!!!! I literally fell out of my chair at that revelation. However this was a tragic story that failed the victims, and demonstrated how a broken system will never really change unless by the hands of those it is created to protect. It was astonishingly reprehensible that this detective who handled the case was involved with the victim. I understand small town nonsense, BUT that is just insane. Knowing there's a possible link or MOTIVE between the victims and the Inspector leading the case should have been handled within the first day of this investigation.
