"I can't talk to her because she's a minor." It's amazing how he can't go out and question a minor, that happens to be a white female. Yet the police have NO PROBLEM interrogating minor black and brown men and women into, most of the time, false confessions. Note, The Central Park Five, etc. There are more than enough conflicting stories and such to question her further. This is absolutely mind boggling and absurd. Christian and his family deserve justice!

Oh my Lord, this is what happened to my brother! How can I get help? It's me against the good 'ol boys at Marion County Sheriff's Office in Salem, Oregon. It's a HUGE mountain to climb.

The thing that baffles me the MOST is WHY the police rushed in the first place and more importantly WHY not reopen the case in the face of all the evidence... just admit you were wrong the first time and move it forward!!! There must be someone they are protecting!!! Hoping there’s more in later episodes on that. Like whose kid is Whitley and how are they connected to the cops, more or less? That’s the only explanation I can come up with...

Ray shows a herculean amount of restraint in dealing with the police giving her the runaround. I'm homicidal just listening to the correspondence between them. 🙄

I almost cried listening to Ray read her letter. The injustice here is astonishing and the investigators that have stalled this case are incredibly corrupt and inept. This is a miscarriage of justice. I keep hearing about shitty investigations and shitty police work in some podcasts I listen to and it makes me sick to think that these freaks are in law enforcement and the public is supposed to trust them. I really hope that this case is brought to justice and the family, the mom can have some sort of relief. She has handled herself so eloquently, whereas if it had been my son that this had happened to, I would have publicly lost my shit with all the lies and corruption, I definately would not be able to hold it together as she has with such class and grace.

This is absolutely RED NECK INVESTIGATING at it's worst. "I'm gonna look up a tutorial for Luminol on YouTube".... are you kidding?? It sounds like the MPD is trying to cover up their ineptness and they're willing to do it at any cost. I'm so glad we now have an open platform like the podcast industry to get the word out when things sound amiss. Remember to cast your votes during town elections. (btw... I lived about 2 hours from there so I'm not disrespecting red necks. I consider myself one as well. LOL)

As a person who has grown up and lived in multiple Southern cities, none of this surprises me.
