If you’re turned on any streaming channel, from Netflix to Hulu to HBO Max, true crime dominates. As of late, what’s especially popular are shows and movies that give true crime the arthouse movie treatment. There's killer cinematography, an A-list cast and a gripping story. The thing is... these stories are often based on tragic events in the recent past. The victims, the families of the victims and the perpetrators are often still alive and aren’t involved. In this episode of Spectacle, we dig into what it means when real tragedies become true crime fodder, featuring interviews with Buzzfeed’s Stephanie McNeal and Margie Ratliff, a participant in The Staircase documentary series.

A Neon Hum Media and Sony Music Entertainment production.
