Quite a documentary

Spoilers: Boy are those internet sleuths a bunch of dummies. The end of the short series will leave you gutted and annoyed and something that I thought was clear from the get go.

I agree. This aspect made this doc more reflective than most. Surprised throughout the narrative, including the end. A well crafted series.

the doc does intentionally mislead but I found it interesting

I think the author misses the whole point...some of his complaints are exactly why I think this doc was better than average. In fact, that was really the whole point. But to each his own!

I don't know that it misleads, as much as it attempts to get the audience to experience--and participate--in the events as they were, not as we now know them to be.
