A crime makes headlines.
People talk about it for a few days, maybe a few weeks.
Then it disappears.
But for the victim, the story is just beginning.
I'm Patia Eaton.
And I'm Hannah Smith.
You might know us as producers and host of the hit true crime podcast, The Opportunist. Now we're thrilled to bring you our new show, The Knife, a podcast that cuts to the heart of the story.
Through in-depth interviews and candid conversations, we'll bring you firsthand accounts of people living through the ripple effects of crime. What's it like to learn that your attacker lives down the street from you? It's like, what? That is impossible.
Like, how could they not tell me? What happens when the person you married becomes someone you don't even recognize? But at night, we hear the garage opening and my son hears it. We freak out.
Honestly, I didn't tell my son this, but I thought that was it. What happens when the news cycle moves on, but you're still living in the story? Most of us don't know the legal process.
And because they always tell you this word closure, I really wish people would stop using that word because there is no such thing as closure. This isn't just a story.
This isn't just an investigation. This is The Knife.
