The crime writers give their take on part 1 of HBO's "The Case Against Adnan Syed." Like the movie version of a favorite book, the episode covers the story of Adnan and Hae's high school relationship, but adds to it in a way "Serial" did not. Note: this episode was recorded before Friday's decision in the case by the MD Court of Appeals.\n\nTO REMAIN SPOILER-FREE FOR EPISODE ONE, GO TO MINUTE 40.\n\nThen the panel wrestles with HBO's two-part "Leaving Neverland." The documentary - told simply and starkly - is the most powerful indictment of Michael Jackson's systematic abuse of star-struck children and their families. (Warning: discussion of this documentary may be triggering for some audience members.)\n\nTO REMAIN SPOILER-FREE FOR LEAVING NEVERLAND, GO TO MINUTE 69.\n\nIn Crime of the Week: how the cookie crumbles.\n\n\xa0\n\nClick here to get the Crime Writers On After Show, plus more exclusive content, on Patreon.: https://patreon.com/partnersincrimemedia
