"...shockingly sordid story. “Betrayal” is truly a terrifying tale reinforcing the idea that we can never know what’s happening inside the mind of someone else. This story will make listeners question everything they thought they knew about love while experiencing the full range of empathetic emotions for Jenifer and Spencer’s victims. "

"This is journalistically and ethically odd, to say the least. It’s good to hear the women reaching sympathetic understanding between themselves. But as Faison is doing the interviews, there’s also a queasy feeling of imbalance. Episode 3 is worth a listen – and worth playing to teenagers – as the victim carefully describes the ways in which Herron manipulated her."
