There is no simple or easy way to say this, but we have come to the realization that the Luminol Podcast must come to an end.
When we started Luminol, we didn't have a plan as to what would happen or an expectation as to how it would perform. We were (and are) blown away by what we created and put out into the world - and mostly because of your response to it!
Luminol became an entity of its own - fostering community and highlighting cases that truly need to be shared. It evolved over time and we couldn't be more proud of it and also more proud of the amazing network it created with our listeners.
We have appreciated every review, every comment, every download and listen - every moment with you.
Why is Luminol ending?
It's so important to us that we do every single case that we talk about justice - we don't have to tell you, but it's at the core of our research that we remember each and every case has a family behind it, friends behind it, police-forces, investigators, and entire teams of people around it. There are real people on the other side of these cases - so it's deeply important to us that we do our due diligence and try to find the most accurate information out there.
This kind of research is time consuming - and we wouldn't change that, but now with the way our own personal lives are developing and growing, it's become impossible to dedicate that type of required research. It would be outside of our core values to share cases with the world that distract, misinform, or hurt any part of a case, a victim, and the people involved.
We love you, we appreciate you, and we could go on and on about how much your support and dedication has meant to us over the years.
So much love,
Sarah, Caitlin, and Mike
