A fascinating and harrowing story but one that could be told in under an hour. They really tried to make it seem more interesting than it actually was to fill time it seems.
By the end of it I couldn't help but feel disappointed, not because I wished something worse happened, but because the first episode made it seem like there was a twist at some point. The whole second episode was a waste of time unless you are interested in the process of investigating this kind of crime. The morbid truth is there are a ton of true crime shows and this story just isn't interesting enough to stand out. Also, the attitude of the victim of the crime and her lawyer is annoying. Why are they so shocked that the police are questioning the validity of her story? I feel like it's their job to ask every question, explore every option, including ones that imply that she's the perpetrator.
Do yourself a favor and just read about the case, because this was just another abduction story that is paced to make it seem like it's something more.
