Well written and Narrated

This is an interesting series discussing the other sides of the argument over life sentences, I listened to it objectively and whilst I did disagree with some points made and could certainly see the anti prison bias that came through it did present some good points that can make you think.

Analysis of Murderers

Intereresting but perplexing as no answers are found. Different perspectives lead to differening conclusions depending on interviewee

Thought provoking

the whole thing was very well put together and there was no hint of being involved too much in the nature of f each crime. There were good links made between the political, demographic, sociological, etc, impacts both of and on the crime. very well planned and a good read. my one major criticism was the reader referring to a home secetry instead of a secretary. he is far from alone and many people do it but it's simply sloppy speech and was especially annoying given that everything else is so good. if you're interested in what impact is caused by whole life tariffs on the crimes this is a very very good buy

Really makes you think

I have always enjoyed crime documentaries on the TV and this was so very different because it explained processes, laws, procedures and definitions to me which I appreciate because it has got me thinking about crime, punishment, retribution, etc.
I may still hold the same opinions now as I did before this 8-part education but my mind has been opened up to think of judicial processes more and why they are there.
A very good documentary, highly recommend it.

Excellent

Low on gore but a fascinating insight into crime and justice. The neutral tone seems to have come across as sympathy to some listeners but seems to me to indicate objectivity. The podcast looks at crime and sentencing as it is rather than as it should be.

Progressive and powerful

The highly emotive and reactionary 1 star reviews ironically prove the well-considered points made by this series perfectly. Their common theme is that the discourse is biased - I imagine finding an informed and qualified commentator to support the tough on crime argument is next to impossible. Consider the negative reviews railing against our human rights as the best advert to listen to this podcast.
