This week’s episode is focusing the intense case of the Menendez Brothers: two privileged young men who confessed who were sensationally tried in court for the murder of their parents. Looking at how the other half live, moral issues, confession evidence and defence pleadings, the Hollywood backdrop of the crime is very fitting. We investigate whether the Menendez brothers are truly spoiled cold-blooded killers, or was there more to the story than we know?

The internet can be a strange place. Its a great source of fun and entertainment, but, if you look for it, something more sinister is always lurking in the shadows of the web. In May of 2014, a fun sleepover between friends took a dark turn, when 12 year olds Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser sought to murder their friend in the name of a mythical online creature, the Slenderman. Was this a cold blooded crime, or an unfortunate tale of what can happen when a fantasy goes too far?

Christmas Day of 2010 took a gruesome turn when the body of 25-year-old Joanna Yeates was discovered. But her murder was not the only tragedy that took place. In the media frenzy that followed, Joanna's landlord, Christopher Jefferies, was villified by the press, and the abuse he suffered at the hands of publishers led to the downfall of the British media and serisously called into question their place in the reporting of crimes.
