Family Massacre

Family Massacre is an exploration of some of the most ruthless murders ever committed.

This series follows the true and gruesome tales of the unthinkable: multiple members of the same family slain in cold blood.

In each episode, we hear from friends and surviving relatives, those people closest to the family that was massacred, while also detailing the work of the dedicated investigators and prosecutors tasked with finding their killer and bringing them to justice.

Through first-hand accounts, archival footage and cinematic recreations, we see the twists and turns of the investigation unfold and delve deep into who could have committed such a shocking crime and just how they were caught and made to answer for it.

In the series premiere, "The Holland Family": A family of four is found dead inside a partially burned Indiana home; when investigators discover that two of the victims died from gunshot wounds, the race is on to determine whether the killer was a stranger or someone closer to home.
 

The Brokenwood Mysteries

Channel: BBC Brit (DStv 120)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Police Procedural, Drama, Mystery

The Brokenwood Mysteries

The Brokenwood Mysteries comprises two-hour murder mystery stories set in a seemingly quiet country town where the town's newest resident, Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd, finds that murder lurks in even the most homely location.

Each telefeature in the series is a standalone story which sees the show's two lead police officers trying to solve a murder case.

In the series premiere, "Blood and Water": When the body of a local farmer is fished out of the river, Shepherd wonders if it was suicide, accidental death, or something more sinister.

The man was a well-known drunk with a reputation for violence, and many in town might have a motive to do him harm.

However, the inspector starts to believe the answer to the case may lie in an unsolved 10-year-old murder.
