This has to be one of the most shocking crimes of the last five years. The literally unbelievable story of how Chris Watts, ‘the perfect father’, ended up killing his pregnant wife and two little girls. There are various TV versions of it, but this one makes fascinating use of Shanann Watts’ extensive social media activity leading up to the crime. Compelling and heartbreaking.

One of the best true-crime shows on Netflix—eight harrowing accounts of miscarriages of justice that sent innocent men to prison for decades, and some to Death Row. The courage of the exonerees, and their determination to make their freedom count for something, is truly humbling.
