The Perfect Collapse: Sympathy Is Not Evidence

Deskripsi

Episode 10: The Perfect Collapse: Sympathy Is Not EvidenceFirefighter Robert Costanzo testifies to what he saw the night Lindsay Clancy was found injured — and Reddington argues the dark got in the way. This whole case keeps circling back to the same question: what looks convincing on the surface, may or may not be the truth. This episode widens our argument to a condition that, like narcissism, sits there for years quietly until something breaks the coping mechanisms holding it in place. Then, we place Lindsay Clancy's case beside three others — Sanders, Coronado, Yates — whose stories didn't get anywhere near the same sympathy.*****************Everyone has an opinion.
