The Case Against Adnan Syed Part 1 & Leaving Neverland

Published: March 11, 2019, 10:06 a.m.

b'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'
