In 1993, Polly Klaas was kidnapped and murdered at the age of 12. Following her death, Polly’s tragic story became a plotline in true crime podcasts, TV shows and books. In this audio essay, Polly’s sister Annie Nichol argues that the popularization of true crime not only re-traumatized victims’ families but also helped create demand for “tough on crime” legislation. “Our legal system actually became more reactionary and more fixated on punishment and fundamentally less just,” she says. (A full transcript of this audio essay will be available midday on the Times website.)

Chick-fil-A customers are debating whether an order of fries at the chain are getting smaller. One patron posted time-lapsed photos to suggest that the chain's waffle fries get soggy over time. Customers of the Southern fast food chain have posted pictures of the fries on Reddit in the last few days. A larger order of waffle fries was $3.49 in Washington, DC, at lunchtime on Monday, according to Chick-fil-A's website. Another Reddit user posted three photographs showing an order of waffle fries after they received them and again nine minutes later.
