À propos de cet audio
It's a case reminiscent of the explosive story of Susan Smith, convicted in the drownings of her two young sons in South Carolina. But in The Unforgiven, three young children are in the back seat of a car driven by Amanda Hamm's boyfriend as it slips into an Illinois lake. Amanda and her boyfriend survive. Her three children do not.
The question of whether it was a horrible accident or a murderous plot divided family and friends and traumatized the entire community. The brief but intense police investigation included seven interviews Hamm voluntarily gave police without the benefit of counsel. The outcome remains controversial to this day and comes full circle with state child welfare workers' concern about children born to Hamm since the fateful day at Clinton Lake.
The Unforgiven coauthor and journalist Edith Brady-Lunny covered the case from start-to-finish, beginning the night of the drownings. Her coauthor Steve Vogel lives nearby. His Reasonable Doubt, considered a true crime classic, was a New York Times bestseller. Together, they have extensive first-hand knowledge of the case and access to nearly every record related to the court proceedings.

Shades of Susan Smith
Edith Brady-Lunny (co-authoring with investigative reporter/podcaster Steve Vogel) leads readers/listeners through an intriguing case of the death of three children trapped in a vehicle that slid into a lake.. this time in Illinois. Did Amanda Hamm's sketchy boyfriend Maurice murder the kids? Was Amanda complicit? Was it an accident?
The authors do a great job presenting the case, investigation, and aftermath with impeccably researched transcripts and recreated conversations.
My main issue with the authors' presentation is that it's so matter-of-fact that it doesn't offer any insight. Their style is "straight documentation".
As to presentation: Reader Keith Sellon-Wright turns in one of the better performances that I have heard from him. His tone is occasionally flat, but this is an above-average listening product.
Altogether, 'The Unforgiven' rates 8 stars out of 10. As an option included with my membership, it was a worthwhile distraction for a couple of quiet afternoons. If it leaves the 'Plus' menu, better options beckon for your Credit.
