Confronting a Serial Killer
Confronting a Serial Killer, executive produced and directed by Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning filmmaker, Joe Berlinger, is a six-episode documentary production that tells the story of the unprecedented relationship between the acclaimed author and journalist Jillian Lauren and the most prolific serial killer in American history, Sam Little.
Lauren uncovers Little's darkest secrets and assists law enforcement in solving a series of filed murders that target marginalized communities, particularly women of color, and must reconcile her own history of addiction and abuse with her current mission to return the identity of previously anonymous bodies and forgotten women. As she delves deeper into her sordid world, Lauren realizes that she may be, psychologically, Little's latest victim.
Seduced: Inside The NXIVM
This four-part docuseries chronicles the extraordinary and harrowing journey of India Oxenberg – the daughter of a Hollywood actress and descendant of European royalty – who was seduced by the modern day sex slave sect NXIVM, where she spent seven years.
More than 17,000 people, including India, have enrolled in NXIVM's "Executive Success Program", a front for the sect and a hunting ground for its leader, master predator Keith Raniere. Women in DOS, a secret slave society within the NXIVM, were victims of sex trafficking and branded with cauterizing irons. As much about recovering from trauma as a mother trying to save her daughter, the series follows India's seduction, indoctrination and enslavement and, ultimately, her escape. She candidly explores how India and a chorus of other women are still struggling to make sense of what they've experienced.
