So one time we brought them to the window of the fifth floor of the building on Stanford's campus. We opened the blinds and said, literally let the sun in that this murder is a horror, but it's in your past. And you want to make sure that this murder doesn't serve as like a full solar eclipse.

It was mixed. They themselves on the whole reported improvement in mood and a dimming of the symptoms of stress.
