8. With re: to Kohberger case, I don't follow closely, but Denver media does report on it a bit...

--given the proximity--but the horror of those murders makes me extremely concerned about how much the defense is seemingly willing to blur all lines and pull out all stops to go after every possible angle. Granted, I do believe in rigorous defense, but the last I heard, they are trying to create mistrial territory because the media has covered it so much and occasionally picked up info, not previously reported in Discovery. Dateline has covered it in one episode (which I have not seen). I am very apprehensive and very much feeling the pain of the families. After all these delays, the trial is set for sometime in August.

There will no doubt be a LOT of podcasts and other media covering it--just as with the Laurie and Chad Daybell cases before. I just hope the prosecution is up to it in the Kohberger case.

As to any "love" of true crime--I admittedly find some of it fascinating. Tune In radio on MSNBC tends to be what I sleep to (yes, really), so on Saturdays and Sunday nights, it switches overnight to Dateline segments. Admittedly, I do listen as I am trying to wake up, and if interesting, I may Google to hear the details I missed. It does freak me out when they seemingly cover some horrible murders all too near me, but which I never heard about (decades or more ago).
