The shocking tale told in How I Helped O. J. Get Away with Murder is unlike anything you've read before. It isn't Mike Gilbert's "version" of what happened'; it's the unvarnished truth - the truth about O. J., the murders, and the infamous trial, not as Gilbert imagined or would like it to be, but how it actually was.

A cautionary Story
Reviewed: 01-01-25
Narration was good. A sad story of a man who sold his soul and seems to have lived with enormous guilt and sorrow. Scorching honesty about his own failures and dreadful decisions. His apology to Fred Goldman was too little and far too late. A sad sad story.

Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. Relayed in his own unsparing voice, Demon braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses.

One of the best books I’ve listened to. The narration was perfect. The story was heartbreaking and laugh out loud funny. Perfect. I couldn’t put it down. Bravo!

Well researched and damning indictment of Southern Baptist leaders. This will be a difficult read for those not familiar with the SBC heir hierarchy. I found much of this book deeply sad. The conclusion was uplifting. I’m glad I read it. I had read the Guidepost investigation report and this book gave me a better understanding of that scathing report.

Some new information
Reviewed: 08-03-24
Mrs, Kennedy was such a complex individual, I don’t think anyone Could completely describe and dissect her personality. This has some new information. The narrator was a little annoying with her Degaulle and McMillan voices, but not overly so. The book fills some gaps in our knowledge of this fascinating woman, but she still has an aura of the mysterious, even long after her death….but isn’t that the point.

Predictable

It was fairly easy to figure out who was the stalker. There too many looney cousins. The harassment was grotesque and I am sure it was traumatizing for the victim. The actual cyber stalker was was not fully developed.

After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life.

Great story and so well produced, I kept reminding myself, that’s not a real crime podcast. Excellent to present it this way. Actually better in audio book, than the printed book. Couldn’t quit listening. Lucy is a great character, I loved her wit.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 791
The Kennedy name has long been synonymous with wealth, power, glamor, and—above all else—integrity. But this carefully constructed veneer hides a dark truth: the pattern of Kennedy men physically and psychologically abusing women and girls, leaving a trail of ruin and death in each generation’s wake. Through decades of scandal after scandal—from sexual assaults to reputational slander, suicides to manslaughter—the family and their defenders have kept the Kennedy brand intact.
