Anyone seen any good crime docs on Netflix? There are two new ones I haven't started yet.

One is A Killing in Cork about the 1996 murder of a French woman.

Not on Netflix, but there is a handful of decent crime documentaries on Youtube. For example:

I watched two British ones.

One is about Ruth Ellis, the last woman hanged in Britain. (There is also an excellent film starring Miranda Richardson called Dance with a Stranger about the case)

The other is about the Jeremy Bamber case. He murdered his family at White House Farm in the UK in the 80s. His sister Sheila Caffell, was a beautiful model but then she had delusions, claimed she was Joan of Arc and a white witch so she found religion. She was murdered along with her two boys and her adopted parents by Bamber.

The weird thing about this case? He has so many people who think he is innocent.

A few minutes into the first documentary about the Bulger killing, I can tell it's a few years out of date because it talks about the prospect of Thompson and Venables being released (something which happened over a decade ago now, I believe). As well as being released they were also given new identities, Thompson has kept a low profile and by all accounts is reformed while Venables is a massive scumbag who keeps breaking his cover and is currently back in prison over CP.

It's an interesting case because while what they did to that boy was horrific, they themselves were very young and the idea of giving someone the death penalty or life in prison for a crime they committed when they were only ten years old always felt iffy to me. The sheer public hatred towards them honestly started to feel a bit creepy, it was as if people were publicly indulging in their sadistic fantasies (again, on minors) while feeling morally justified in doing so. Although the court received a ton of flack for the decision to give them both a second chance I think it was ultimately the right one (but now Venables has squandered his chance he shouldn't be given another one).

Idk...I still think its fucked up that little boy suffered.

The Ted Bundy Tapes, Murder Among the Mormons, and the Night Stalker documentaries were all good in my opinion. I think Murder Among the Mormons was my favorite.

I'm trying to post ones that are lesser-known than the famous ones everyone has heard of (e.x. Gacy, Dahmer, Gein, Bundy, etc).

he has a website, which i found by accident looking him up after watching the drama series based on the murders

www.jeremy-bamber.co.uk

Jeremy Bamber Campaign Official Web Site

Who cares about disclosure of the evidence?
www.jeremy-bamber.co.uk www.jeremy-bamber.co.uk

even now he's trying to say he was wrongly accused

I've been on a True Crime spree so I can give some recommendations with brief descriptions:

Amanda Knox - All about the case and the fuck-ups about it.

Night Stalker - Really good portrait about Ramierez.

The Ted Bundy Tapes - Last chance for the psycho to get out, he tried to do it with tapes from a journalist. Horrifying.

Evil Genius - Story about the woman who put a bomb collar around a pizza guy's neck.

The Confession Killer - All about Henry Lee Lucas, a killer who confessed to killing so many people and Law Enforcement used him to close all their cold cases to get their clearance up. Goes over the bullshit.

The Ripper - The hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper (warning, it has a dumb cunt feminist in it, but that's a small part)

Trial By Media - All sorts of trials that captured national attention and the effect the media had on them.

The Devil Next Door - Is the neighbor next to this couple a Nazi Concentration Camp officer?

The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez - Absolutely fucking infuriating story about child abuse and murder.

The Innocent Man - Corruption among small town detectives imprisons two innocent men and a 30 year search for the truth.

Roll Red Roll - All about a rape recorded on a phone and what lead to arrests and conviction.

Athlete A - Story focusing on Larry Nasser and his history of abuse.

Who Killed Little Gabriel? - A French Cold case that is truly disturbing.

Murder Mountain - About California and Illegal Weed growers and the danger there.

The Keepers - A nun witnesses a priest molest female students. She is later found to be murdered. The case quickly goes cold, but over 30+ years later the hunt for the perpetrator continues.

Room 2806: The Accusation - The story of the abuse of a hotel worker by the head of the IMF.

Murder Among the Mormons - Interesting story about several people killed with bombs and why.

This is a Robbery: The World's Biggest Art Heist - A story about the most expensive art heist in history, which is still unsolved.

Made You Look - A story about art forgery and the money it cost stupid rich people.

Honorable Mention:

Unsolved Mysteries - Some people didn't like it, but I enjoyed it. Its pretty much all cold cases from around the world.

Maybe:

The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel - This is pretty conditional. IT has internet retards who much like the one below, finger the wrong person and basically get every fact wrong. But the good part is the majority is about the detectives, people who worked in the area and about Skid Row. You can fast forward through the internet losers who thought an ELISA test was a conspiracy theory and people so obsessed that they thought they knew a complete stranger.

DO NOT WATCH:

Don't Fuck with Cats - Entirely about ineffectual internet retards who do absolutely nothing except finger the wrong guy on Facebook and bully him into suicide. They don't do anything but annoy the police. If you want to see a bunch of obsessives, ineffective retarded Facebook users fail spectacularly, give it a go. Otherwise skip.

It also relies on the viewer having not been around on the non-normie parts of the Internet when the events were actually happening. As soon as I realised it was about Luka Magnotta I was like, "Really? These nobodies are claiming they were behind finding him?". It was 4chan and Reddit who played the main role in doxxing him, not a random Facebook group. The documentary is full of total glory hunters who were way less important in the story than they make out.

This too. At first I thought it was a different case of a different dude, like the guy who was into crushing kittens, but nope, it was 4chan and reddit and I realized that they didn't want to 'glorify' 4chan and 4chan would have probably told them to go suck a dick.

They weren't just less important, they were COMPLETELY ineffectual. They did no investigating, the police figured out more shit than they ever did, and they were disliked by everyone involved, from the family of the victim, to the cops.

And don't forget at the end, the documentary tries to blame you for glorifying it. Fuck these normies and fuck the dumb faggots who made the doc. It is absolutely fucking TERRIBLE.

This one dumb cunt thinks she's going to get murdered and the killer doesn't even know who the fuck they are at the end of the day. It was the most pathetic shit I've seen.

Unsolved Mysteries is the shit. Robert Stack is underrated lol. I saw that show before I saw Airplane so it was a shock to me that he could do comedy lol. He was also the narrator in the Hercules cartoon.
I swear that theme song and that update music still haunts me.

The Keepers was so infuriating but fascinating.

What I hated about this one was the sheer fucking arrogance of this Facebook group. They kept saying, "We found this guy but no one would listen!" Bitch, who the fuck are you and why should the police believe you, especially when you live on the opposite end of the continent? What makes you so important that the authorities should automatically listen to your ramblings about some guy you think did the cat killings?

Not to mention the whole Internet angle was dropped halfway through when the police actually get involved and the Facebook group stop being relevant. It was unfocused, like it wanted to tell a narrative about sick fucks on the Internet, but there wasn't enough stuff about the group to justify the length of the documentary. Meanwhile the investigation into Luka had to be crammed into the second half because the first half wasted so much time on those dumb fucks.

It's mildly interesting if you don't know anything about Luka Magnotta (I only knew about the person he murdered and knew nothing about the cat killing), but even then it's sloppily told at best and incoherent at worst.
