Like I get with crime shows you have to surprise people with who the murderer is but I can't help but feel annoyed when the statistics are so grossly misrepresented.

Most of these murders should be male on male (that scenario has happened exactly once so far and was also my favorite epsiode).

Not the biggest fan of watching women get brutalized by men (the scenario that has happened the most).

And there are wayyy more female killers than there realistically should be. The one that seemed the most plausible was the one where the stepmom killed her stepson and it was clearly largely racially motivated.

The other two were just plain offensive, implying that a lesbian's greatest threat is other lesbians (her wife no less) and not heterosexual men and the second one being about a woman who was trying to kill her sister's rapists.

The killer of the rapists was arrested and shown to be morally in the wrong even though none of the rapists had had been convicted for their crime. The last surviving rapist was arrested but only because of a technicality. What would Jane have done if the statute of limitations was up? Would she have let him walk away free? While the woman who was doing a public service gets locked up?

I could rant about how stupid I find the framing of that situation for hours but I'll stop here for now. I am really enjoying the show, it just makes me wanna bash my head into a wall sometimes.
