We’ve got a crazy trailer for you to check out for the Netflix documentary The Confession Killer. The five-part documentary follows the true events that took place when police received information from Henry Lee Lucas, a man who confessed to killing at least 360 people in the 1980s. At first, this seemed like a dream come true for investigators who were suddenly able to put answers to endless cold cases that Lucas took credit for. He had information and gave pertinent details… but many details became murky and just off enough to cause the investigators to take pause.
The doc takes a deep dive into the cases and confessions, and addresses the way criminal confessions and investigations are handled. It also begs the question, why would someone confess to crimes they did not commit?
Check out the trailer below, and let us know if you’ll be checking out The Confession Killer on Netflix on December 6th.
