| 1:00.5 | Hello, hello, hello. Welcome back to an all new episode of Serialessly with me, Annie E. Lease, your true crime bestie here to break down another case for you today. It's Monday. And that means |
| 1:08.2 | it is case deep dive day. Gosh, say that five times fast. Case deep dive day. |
| 1:14.8 | And so what that means is obviously what I just said. We're going to do a deep dive into a case. |
