Welcome back to the Emily Show this week while I am covering the last week of the

Karen Reed trial and on jury watch we are bringing you a audio-only episode of

the podcast this audio comes from my talk at the

CrimeCon Conference in Nashville in 2024. I was really happy to be able to talk to a

room full of hundreds but also creators about the ethical way to create in this area.

How do we talk about cases and still respect the people who are part of those cases.

And on a larger scale, how do we respect one another online

to have differences of opinion

and still have respectful conversations because people will see cases differently.

People will see evidence differently.

And jurors engage in a collaborative process to reach an understanding and an agreement and I

think there's room to take that type of collaborative conversation online in

communities like ours.

I always want to see creators creating their own version of our community,

whatever that thing is, because the more positive communities we have online

the more spaces we have for people to connect, to learn, to learn about one

another, to learn about themselves, to explore thoughts and concepts to ask questions and have

conversations because the only bad question is the one that does not get

asked and especially when we are connecting in more online spaces it's not always

easy to ascertain if you can genuinely ask a question and get a genuine response and not get attacked, get snorked at or whatever.

And I think this topic is something we need to continue to talk about and I am so

incredibly grateful for you as a part of this community that also wants to have conversations online who embodies I have questions and stays hydrated.
