She Should Have Known Better

Send us Fan MailWhy do some true crime stories leave us questioning the victims instead of the person who deceived them? Maggie leads Emilia through how hits like Dirty John and The Tinder Swindler frame their subjects and how those choices shape our judgments about credibility, responsibility and who deserves sympathy. The episode also revisits reporting on the Marcel Vautour case, looking at how the coverage has changed since Catch Him If You Can and what those shifts reveal about the media’s treatment of victims.
