Why I stopped watching true crime
I love horror movies, Halloween, the supernatural, and witchy vibes. For many years, I also watched true crime documentaries, which I have gladly discussed with all of my friends. I wasted countless hours reading articles about horrible crimes. Out of morbid curiosity, I have looked at crime scene photos. All of this was insanely bad for my mental health. It took me many years to realize that. Our true crime obsession has gotten to a point where there are disturbing fandoms. There are events like Crime-Con that are very similar to Comic-Con. We have convicted murderers on TikTok sharing prison hacks. There are exclusive interviews with murderers that people look forward to hearing. Most people know the killers' names but not so much the victims. I quit watching true crime for two reasons. First one, because there are killers that are now more successful than people who actually deserve it. The second and most important reason, one of my best friends was murdered by her husband. Murderers should not be given a platform. We need to quit inspiring the next one.

Mandate the legal name change of domestic violence murder victims
On October 14, 2024, Dainara Nicole Burford was tragically murdered by her husband. He shot her and then discarded her body in the trash while their five children were at home. I refer to her by her maiden name, Burford, as do all who love her—none of us will use her killer's last name. His last name was not mentioned at her celebration of life. I believe the law should change so that all legal court documents and media coverage cannot use the name of the perpetrator.
