Crime Seen | Episode 33: Capturing the Killer Nurse
Crime Seen is a true crime review podcast that gets to the heart of how true crime stories are told. Join Mari Forth @MariTalks2Much and Sarah Carradine @sarahcarradine as they put true crime properties under the magnifying glass. In this episode they examine two properties concerning Charlie Cullen: feature film THE GOOD NURSE and the documentary CAPTURING THE KILLER NURSE. Watch them both on Netflix. Joining them is Lindsay Wilson.
They compare the film to the documentary, and discuss the motivations of the killer nurse, as well as where else blame might rightly lie. How many magnifying glasses out of 5 will they rate THE GOOD NURSE and CAPTURING THE KILLER NURSE? Listen to find out. Or jump to the ratings at about 45:12
