Forsaken world gameplay. When a new show sinks its hooks into you, one of the first questions you might ask yourself is: How long will it run? Subscribers who find themselves engrossed in Netflix's newest true crime docuseries may ask a similar question this weekend. So, to get ahead of the game, Bustle asked director and executive producer Ryan White if — and his answer was illuminating.With the proliferation of original programming platforms and various formats during our current Golden Age of TV, it can be admittedly difficult to tell at first-glance what's a one-off miniseries, what's a limited series that may or may not continue in the future, what's an anthology series that switches things up every year, and what's a good old-fashioned traditional ongoing series. And even if The Keepers was originally envisioned as a one-off, there's always the possibility that a combination of high viewership, critical acclaim, and social media buzz could drive Netflix to renew it for a second season — just as they did with its former.
(Season 2 of that show is scheduled to premiere sometime this year.)White says he envisioned The Keepers as a one-and-done examination of Cesnik's murder, but he doesn't necessarily rule out the possibility of continuing it. 'My goal was not to make a second season,' White tells Bustle. Then he adds, 'Never say never.' In terms of what a hypothetical Season 2 could entail, White mentions that 'we've already seen a lot of movement just since the trailer came out.
A few days ago, the Baltimore Police exhumed Father Joseph Maskell's body to get a DNA sample.' Netflix on YouTubeMaskell, though never charged in connection with Cesnik's murder, is at the center of The Keepers after being accused by many women of sexually abusing them while they were at Keough High School in the late '60s and early '70s. The series theorizes that Cesnik could have been murdered to keep this alleged abuse secret, as several woman in the series claimed that Cesnik did know about the alleged abuse.
Until his death in 2001., but the Archdiocese of Baltimore, who employed Maskell and oversaw Keough, state on their website, 'When suspicions arose regarding Maskell in 1994, he was interviewed by the police and also by The Baltimore Sun about the allegations of sexual abuse and also about the murder of Sr. A spokesman for the Archdiocese acknowledged the accusations made against Maskell in a statement to Bustle: 'Since the 1990s, when the Archdiocese of Baltimore first learned of an allegation of child sexual abuse against Maskell, and on numerous occasions since, the Archdiocese has publicly acknowledged and apologized for the horrific abuse committed by him. The Archdiocese reported the allegations to civil authorities in the 1990s and cooperated fully in any investigation, removed Father Maskell’s faculties to function as a priest, apologized to victims and offered them counseling assistance, sought additional victims, and provided direct financial assistance to 16 individuals abused by Maskell. Though it was unaware of the abuse at the time it occurred approximately 50 years ago, the Archdiocese deeply regrets the damage that was caused to those who were so badly harmed and has worked diligently since becoming aware of their abuse to bring some measure of healing to them. The Archdiocese is wholly committed to protecting children, holding abusers accountable — clergy and laity alike, and promoting healing for victims. These are hallmarks of the Archdiocese’s child protection efforts, which we strive to constantly strengthen. There is no room in the Archdiocese for anyone who would harm a child and every effort must be made to ensure what happened before never happens again.
It is our hope that The Keepers advances this pursuit, just as we hope the series helps those who have kept alive the memory of Sr. Cathy and our collective hope that justice will be won for her.' NetflixBut, The Baltimore Sun reported this week that for crime scene evidence — putting police right back to square one of their cold case investigation. (A spokesperson for the Baltimore County Police Department told Bustle in a statement that the department is still actively looking into the case, though. 'This has been one of our most active cold cases for many years; our current team of detectives continues to work diligently to solve this case,' the statement said.But, even if the DNA test and other potential developments still managed to lead to enough material for a second batch of episodes, it would likely be a long time before viewers actually got to watch another season. It took three years to put Season 1 together, White says. He also says he's not interested in doing a Season 2 of The Keepers that revolves around a completely different case; if the show ever comes back, it will be in order to continue the story of Sister Cathy.
'There could be incredible movement that comes out of this truth being unburied, and perhaps I would continue to cover that,' he says. 'But I'm very happy with the seven episodes that we did create and the impact that I know they can have. So if it ends with that, I feel fulfilled.'

Knowing that he is someone Cathy knows well and trusts, Jean would probably feel that even Cathy won't help her.
Same story with Brother Bob telling Jean that he's the one who killed Cathy. Both Brother Bob and Maskell knew well how terrified of him Jean have been. Even when Maskell came back to his office he asked 'did you take care of it?' They knew that if Brother Bob talked to her, she wouldn't talk. I think that if Cathy really spoke to Brother Bob, she didn't actually confide in him but maybe confronted him. He just used Cathy against Jean, to scare her even more so she wouldn't talk to anyone.I always thought that Edgar could be Brother Bob.
He was a dangerous person. Remember when his first wife confronted him and he almost killed her? Also before they got married his sister warned her that she shouldn't marry him because she doesn't know some bad stuff about him (I'm sure she didn't think only about some money problems). Let's not forget that not so long after Cathy's murder he was driving around school and tried to entice girls into a stolen car. Sounds like someone who would like to come to school to rape girls. And like someone who would have such a temper that would have to be stopped by Maskell.
He's a terrifying creep. I'm scared of him and I don't even know the guy. If I needed someone to scare somebody to death I would use someone like Edgar. Not to mention all those weird links to the murder of Cathy: the necklace, the memories of his first wife concerning the murder, the fact that he drives with both feet and that he called the radio show. There's too much of it to be just a coincidence. There is another possible very ordinary explanation to the relationship between Cesnik and Koob. This is that he may have exploited her sexual and emotional naivety to gratify his own needs for some time but in fact turned her down for his Church, rather that his claim that she refused his proposal of marriage.
This may explain the disingenuous tone to some of his accounts of what happened.Koob was a ‘Man of God’ first and foremost in his younger clerical life. In the restrictive context of celibacy, but also the revolutionary changes to Catholicism being imagined after Vatican 2, combined with the social experiments of the lively 60’s, many young priests flirted and sought solace with young outgoing nuns. There was hope of a new clerical way of life on the horizon.But these men were still very much under the control orders of their Church. Men would regularly seek and be counselled by other clerics further up the hierarchy that their sexual drives were natural; that satisfying them outside their vows was a normal moral lapse for any man, but that God’s ultimate desire for them was to always return to their vows and the higher moral purpose of their lives as God’s representatives on Earth. In this counselling, there would be no recognition of the suffering they caused to the women with whom they sought dalliance or consolation. Common advice was just to “avoid temptation” by creating distance between themselves and their lovers. In other words, “rejection” and “erasure” of the women was the best solution to returning to focus within the clerical fold.If the letter Koob received from Cesnik is genuine, there are some extracts in it that point to a scenario where it was in fact herself, not him, who was enduring a painful rejection.
“My heart aches so for you.”.” I must wait on you – your time and your need – even more than I had before. I think I can begin to live with that more easily now than I did two months ago, just loving you.
Within myself.”Thus, Koob may not have been her killer, but being a coward and keen to remove any possible motive from the minds of the police framed his story around her rejection of ‘his’ honourable proposal of marriage, rather than his rejection of her, or a life with her, outside the Church at that point in his life. Koob is 'Brother Bob' and could be the angry 'booming voice' heard by the girls who were checking out where their teachers lived on the evening Kathy disappeared. This guy gives me the creeps and I don't believe a word he says. He would be quite capable of violence to stop details of his own sexual affair with Sister Kathy becoming public knowledge and more so regarding the rampant sexual and emotional abuse of so many children by other priests and the heirarchy of the Catholic Church, the police and other people of standing in Baltimore. The level of corruption and depravity is truly shocking.
