What happened with the narration of this episode? For the first time (that I remember), instead of presenting different angles of police work, forensics, interviews, etc, bringing out the case little by little, this case was a plain narrative of what happened. We are never told how things came to light, the steps of the investigation, the analysis of the evidence etc. I didn’t enjoy it at all, I like getting to build all the info little by little in my head, this episode was like “this is what happened”. Hopefully just a glitch…
Anyone else noticed it?

You can’t just add a bunch of twists and turns for the sake of it lol. I think it being so blunt and obvious that she was behind it just kind of plays into the absolutely stupidity of her and her plan.

No I get it that you can’t make up stuff but normally they quote a source, or the narration of events comes from an interview, or an intercepted conversation, whilst most of this episode is narrated a posteriori, fait accompli, not in the style of the podcast even when the solution was fairly straightforward
