Literally every turn is this girl basically screwing herself into a hole. I don't think the dumbest person on this planet could manage to do this.
Yes i understand that it all starts with these garbage (could never be) cops but WOW. Felt like this movie was trying to give the watchers a guilt trip for just watching.
movie??
shareIMO, I think she was young...very susceptible to the perspectives of those around her...and feeling like she was being doubted made her to doubt herself.
And the cops...shoot, I thought their position was understandable. I mean, considering the information they had at their disposal, the number of times her story had changed, I don't think you could really paint them as being unnecessarily obtuse here, let alone being so bad that they could never realistically exist.
I don't know, this show seems to be on par with others that are as well written, where it seems like its getting harder and harder to find a sole person to lay the blame on. This was definitely not the cops' finest work, but it also seems like the circumstances just kind of came together in a shitty way for all involved here.
Of course, I'm saying this only half way into the second episode here.
She had been let down by the system her whole life. She was really damaged by that and only expected the worst to happen to her. Even her lawyer urged her to confess to false report as it would be the best possible outcome for her.
