Payne Lindsey: 我最初只是个拿着麦克风的普通人,调查一起悬而未决的案件,觉得自己在调查新闻领域是个十足的冒牌货。我并非侦探或律师,只是痴迷于寻找真相。这个疯狂的想法却意外走红,给塔拉·格林斯特德的亲人发声,将窃窃私语变成公开对话,最终成为媒体关注的焦点。在调查过程中,我发现执法部门并不希望我介入,但我不打算停止。我调查了所有与案件相关的人,包括之前的嫌疑人,以及从未与媒体说过话的人。我花费大量时间观看旧新闻片段,寻找联系或不一致之处。最终,塔拉·格林斯特德的两名前学生被捕,律师和调查人员开始关注我的工作,我甚至不得不携带枪支。我发现的不仅仅是塔拉·格林斯特德的案件,还包括小镇政治、恐惧以及长达十年的沉默。即使节目季终了,我也从未停止调查和录音,现在是时候公开一些秘密了。对那些知道真相却保持沉默的人,这是一个警告,因为我知道你们知道。执法部门仍在调查,他们会对那些主动坦白的人从轻处理。 关于瑞恩·杜克和博·杜克斯的案情,我认为瑞恩无疑参与其中,无论他是否杀害了塔拉,他都在处理她的尸体和保守秘密方面扮演了角色。博·杜克斯知道的比他承认的要多,他编造了一个故事让自己看起来像个无辜的帮凶。考虑到他的过往,博本人可能是杀害塔拉的凶手。真相可能介于他们两个故事之间。最终,没有人因塔拉·格林斯特德的谋杀而被定罪,真正的罪行在法律上仍未解决。 匿名人士: 我认为如果有人去报警,告诉他们去那里搜查,然后他们没有让其他人知道,那是错的。我认为欧文县存在腐败。我认为每个人都很困惑,每个人都在问为什么。我认为瑞恩会明知故犯地为一起他未犯下的谋杀案承担责任。
