I Love You, Now Die & Exhibit A

I Love You, Now Die & Exhibit A

We're back with a double review. First, HBO's “I Love You, Now Die,” exams the strange case of a teenager accused of ordering her boyfriend to commit suicide over text message. The documentary tells a deeper story than was presented on TV news, probing the troubled lives of both young people to offer more complex reasons Conrad Roy might have wanted to die and why Michelle Carter didn’t stop him.

FOR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF “I LOVE YOU, NOW DIE,” GO TO MINUTE 34.

Next, Netflix's “Exhibit A” looks at four court cases in which questionable forensic science was used to secure otherwise shaky convictions. The documentary goes at the public’s blind trust in science, giving real-life examples of how it can be misused or misinterpreted. Our discussion of "Exhibit A" was recorded in front of a live audience at the True Crime Podcast Festival in Chicago.

FOR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF “EXHIBIT A,” GO TO MINUTE 62.

Then in Crime of the Week: traffic cop-out.
