Warning: Spoilers
I thought this was like the previous episode. Too many of the same home movies and dragging it out. Much like the other previous( spoiler if you watch episodes backwards) they kept making it seem like the antagonist is the victim and endear you to them only to make a surprise near the end that they are guilty and in fact living a lie. It didn't take much guessing cause they did caption the woman talking about the happy life was his " ex wife" which tips one off.

I had more questions at the end of this.

Was he found guilty of attempted rape? Probably but they didn't say I believe. What if he was innocent and so infuriated at the accusation he killed her as no one was coming to his defense. I mean he probably did but they just said he was found guilty of murder. Also can you be arrested and lose everything cause the victim thinks your voice sounds like the attacker? Seems so

I would like to know more about estimating g shadows and how big the margin of error is if one is off a few degrees say for example. Instead they kept playing sss as me videos of him fishing.

What really got me is this was one of many stories I've seen in the true crime genre, not just this series, where I Google the killer, and there's big differences in the story or a whole chunk not mentioned. So this killer, this year 2022, a few years after this episode aired , is being granted a retrial cause of a key piece of shady evidence never mentioned. I guess talking about astronomer analyzing shadows makes better tv than the other reason he was put away. A woman swore in testimony she saw him at a certain time in the shopping plaza where murder was but the time stamp on her receipt made it difficult for him to be there but they hid the evidence So this was another thing about altered time stamps just with a cash register. I think he's still guilty but it sounded like that was in fact the key piece of evidence. Interesting to see what happens. Google him and see what I'm saying.
