Show seems like it's going to be really sad. Every character is just...sad, and I honestly can't say I like any of these people outside of maybe the author. Hopefully that lends itself to a good redemption arc of some sort.

I think a big part of that was a device to quickly develop sympathy for the victim in a fairly short time frame. I would fully expect to see a more sympathetic side of some of the characters moving forward. You already saw hints of it with Mare (putting up the new poster, being compassionate to the addict brother, comforting her grandson in bed at the end).
