That stupid Erin asks the dumbest question to the friends and family of the victims, not just in this episode, in all the episodes she does. She just asked the Mother "do you still miss her"? Well, no shit dummy, nah, I stopped missing her the next day! WTF? Who would ask that to a grieving Mother whose daughter was murdered?
