I think some people are missing the point

Pam Hupp could be anyone from anywhere.

In this Dateline'esque style show about a terrible true crime, it examines the horrible woman at the center of it, Pam Hupp. What it also does is expose the other people who need exposing ... the inept investigators and prosecutor. Talk about misconduct! Wow!

The retelling brings to light how tragically Betsy's children lives were shattered not just by Pam but by all those who were involved from the start. Betsy's husband, Russell, was another victim to Pam. And he wasn't the last.

Understanding how wrong a case can go from the very start can hopefully help someone else from having the same thing happen to them ... because Pam Hupps exist, whether it be LA, California or a small town in Missouri. And while this is entertaining and may feel like it makes light of Betsy's murder, it very much takes the truth and justice of it quite seriously.

Having seen videos of the real Pam Hupp, I have to give it up to Renee on capturing her accent and mannerisms. The supporting cast does a wonderful job, too!
