"The argument for this episode might include the fact that it provides victims and their families catharsis, through airing their voices and allowing them to begin the healing process," says Daniel D'Addario. "But in the main, the special episode is at best an unnecessary addendum, and at worst a subtle undoing of some of what made I’ll Be Gone in the Dark such a standout."
