This is the first true crime detective series where I felt the police showed an incredible amount of care towards the family and giving them notice about what was happening, allowing them as much dignity as possible. This is the first two episodes about Julie Reilly. Other episodes I've seen so far did not involve the victims' families. The oddest thing about the show was the lighting used during filming both of the detectives as they met for formal meetings in the office, and the family in their homes. It made everyone look very unhealthy and almost dead themselves. No kidding. Like the dead taking care of the dead. Faces looked thin-skinned and bruised. I can understand the family looking this way because of the trauma of a loved one's violent death. But even the detectives? I don't know if that was on purpose, but it gave an added nuance of horror to what was already a horrific murder.
