Every so often I get an update on the mushroom killer from Shellie. And I'm never satisfied. All those podcast episodes and news series, all focused on her testimony in court and whether she might win or lose.

None of that is interesting. I just wanna hear a podcast that asks why she's even contesting the charges. Why is she maintaining this facade that she didn't do it? That's what's interesting here. How did she ever imagine she could get away with this murder plot? What makes her hubris so consuming? How she did end up so arrogant as to think her feeble attempts to mask the evidence would be sufficient? What drives a person to plot murder in the first place?

Most of us would never commit murder. Not just because "urgh what a pain in the neck that would be" but because "I'd get caught for sure." Here is someone who crossed both those lines and did it anyway. That's a story.
