True crime documentaries tend to focus on either the killers, the victims, or people who may or may not have been wrongly convicted.
Netflix’s new series Catching Killers takes a different tack, featuring interviews with the investigators involved in various serial killer cases and discussing how they felt, how the cases progressed, and what the crimes did to them on a psychological level.
“When you see something like that, it has some effect on you,” says a detective near the end. “If it doesn’t, in my opinion, you’re not human.”
Catching Killers drops on Netflix Nov. 4.
