Should start out with ones where the prosecution came up with elaborate stories and convicted the person, by they later turned out to be completely innocent.

It is by definition a false crime.

Although it should be a true crime for the prosecution.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sure a crime actually happened, but what the prosecution said in court never actually happened. Their believe is irrelevant to facts.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

No, I mean the prosecution being guilty of purgery.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Based on a true story.

I was going to say, as I understand it, some true crime podcasts turn out to be false crimes once the investigations are reopened.

"So then, what does this dumb idiot do, who is also ugly? He shits his pants, then takes them off and carries them into the police station, naked except for his shitty ass, and turns himself in."

I like how they say false crime as if storytelling and theater aren't a thing already.

Bitch just invented fiction.

Modern day Arthur Conan Doyle.

Isn't this basically the first episode of Castle?

It is in my time zone, where it's Saturday already.

I wondered why I didn’t see it (American).

I'm going to make the crimes rediculous and unpheasible, so you can't force me into a true crime podcast.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm going to relentlessly spam your podcast with spelling and grammar corrections so the ridiculous and unfeasible crimes pale in comparison to the word crimes I've exposed.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

lmao how did I manage to misspell both of them

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

I'm going to throw myself into a vat of toxic waste to gain superpowers to do those crimes anyway.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So you’re offering me a Death Note, except better

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Implying it could be worse lol

This is easily circumvented by this wonderful newfangled technology of the calendar
