A Crime to Remember 4

Styles may change, but murder lasts forever.

A Crime to Remember invites you to step into the past and unravel the intricacies of real-life murder cases of the '50s and '60s.

Set against the backdrop of Studebakers, fedoras and three-martini lunches, these stories of truly mad men and women reveal complicated relationships where thwarted dreams and repressed passions led to terrible crimes.

Each hour-long episode treats you to the "through-the-looking-glass" experience of crime solving in decades past, in a pre-DNA era when 911 didn't even exist.

It wasn't just the criminals who confounded the cops, the cultural taboos and social norms of the time were also obstacles in the pursuit of justice.

Long-forgotten cases are brought to life and new details about infamous crimes are revealed.

Each narrative is driven by the voice of a fictional bystander who "knew" the victim, while reporters and police who lived through the actual case explain how the impact of the crime and investigation sent shockwaves through the community.

A Crime to Remember showcases the most compelling crimes of our past, when murder erupted from the same dark places as today, but the cops had to catch the killer with little more than a fingerprint duster and a Rolodex.

In the Season 4 premiere, "Devil's Advocate": In 1963, Carol Thompson's body is found on a neighbour's doorstep.

The detectives must peel away the layers of a picture-perfect life to find out the truth.
