People are trashing it because apparently they used some AI to create pics of her, but I watched it and found it engaging. They used a lot of police interview footage, and that was all real, which I thought was a fascinating study as the story unfolded.

I also appreciate that Netflix made it an hour and a half documentary instead of padding it into a three/five/ten part series.
