0:00.0	Hey listeners Megan here. So this week Amy and I are taking some time off to spend with our loved ones, but we wanted to bring back this episode for you to listen to from season 2.
0:10.0	Before we play it though, I just want to say that as we are going into our fifth season with women in crime,
0:16.5	Amy and I really want to thank you, our listeners, for supporting us these last four years.
0:23.0	Before we started this podcast, if you would have told me about all the wonderful people we connect with,
0:29.0	whether it's on social media, via email, in person and an event or wherever.
0:36.0	I don't know that I would have believed it.

2:18.9	so though we will focus a lot in her case I think it's equally as important that we give him
2:24.3	uh... due attention i agree thank you me again of course but before we get to this case
2:29.2	and i have to tell you Amy this case the only way I can describe it is devastating.
2:34.6	But we will give a warning again.
