Holiday Happy Hour
December 16, 2021
LIVE EVENT
Holiday Happy Hour with crimeHQ was a success! We gathered over Zoom for a little over an hour (and I know we all could have gone on longer if there weren't a time constraint). The event was hosted by Kelly McLear, who is always amazing at getting everyone thinking and talking. While it wasn't mandatory, a few attendees rocked holiday gear, including one in superfun light-up Christmas bulb jewelry. And some were chasing the entertaining and compelling conversation with a few sips of something festive. The first topic of discussion brought up by McLear was:
"What was your obsession case in 2021?"
Unsurprisingly, more than one person brought up Delphi, and how the recent headlines associated with the case had gotten all of our hopes up. Another one of our moderators, Leah Ciriaco, said that the recent Michigan school shooter was the case that she couldn't stop thinking about, because of its many layers.
