The Docket 06.22.23 Toma and Gein
A '70s crimoir procedural, and a major case with nothing new to tell us
the true crime that's worth your time
The Dave Toma story, and how it led to Baretta; cringey midcentury attitudes about AAVE, infertility, and white/abled saviors; if your “let’s rap!” youth pastor got a TV show; titling tropes; when ghoulish outliers get badly recoded for the queer experience; Wisconsin winters do shit to people; and our predictions re: a post-strike increase in “upcycled” true crime.
