I loved the first season so much and was genuinely excited to watch the next series, which is out today. So far, I am already hooked. It’s intense, gripping, and it proves yet again just how important the work of these investigators is. This show doesn’t just highlight cases it highlights the emotional weight, the…
Does having autism make someone more or less likely to become a killer? It’s an uncomfortable question, yet it sits at the heart of this undeniably tragic yet often frustrating documentary.
