The crimes most commonly include murder; about 40 percent focus on tales of serial killers.As much as we love listening to a celebrity interview or cultural discussion, there’s nothing quite like a true crime podcast to keep you hooked for hours on end.There’s a reason why so many true crime series have climbed the podcast charts over the years – from the genre-defining brilliance of Serial to the unexpected twists and turns of Sweet Bobby, true crime is the genre that just keeps on giving.True crime has never been more popular than it is today, as evidenced by the astonishing number of podcasts, TV shows, and documentaries dedicated to the genre. At its core, however, true crime is a type of nonfiction literature. From influential works like Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood (1966) to modern-day investigations such as Michelle McNamara’s I’ll Be Gone in the Dark (2018) or Elon Green’s Last Call (2021), such narratives are unique in the way they connect with their readers, precisely because they explore harrowing real-life events that could happen to anyone.Want to know more about true crime? Here we define the genre, take a fascinating look at its origins, and cover some of its common themes.The Definition of “True Crime”It seems like the definition of true crime would be obvious: A story about a crime that actually occurred. Indeed, most true crime books explore dark and distressing subject matter, and reader discretion is advised.

They can also be about the collective crimes of serial killers, thieves, or cult leaders. However narrow or broad the focus, the best true crime books deliver well-researched, finely written examinations of the case at hand.But the wealth of details is just half of what makes true crime so popular with readers. The most talented true crime authors excel at presenting the facts of a case while vividly re-creating the atmosphere that surrounded the crime. They put criminals and their victims in context by establishing elements like the political climate of the day, the history of a town, or the struggles faced by a particular community. They dig into everyone’s motives, then weigh these motives against the actions and developments they document. They re-create dialogue as faithfully as possible, although of course sometimes it’s necessary to take artistic liberties.In other words, the most popular true crime authors transport readers to the scene of the crime, with all ...

    True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion - Under the Influence - NXIVM

    In this episode of True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion, we dive deep into the highly controversial NXIVM case. Keith Raniere’s conviction may have ended the trial, but the public remains divided. Were the women involved, particularly Allison Mack and Clare Bronfman, victims of manipulation, or willing participants in a dangerous game of control and power? We explore the blurred lines between consent and coercion, influence and autonomy. You’ve heard the facts, and now it’s time to decide: Was NXIVM a system of manipulation, or were its members fully aware of their choices? Listen closely, and by the end, you'll be left with one question: Was justice truly served, or is there more to the story?

    True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion - The Menendez Brothers: Victims of Trauma or Calculating Killers?

    In this gripping episode of True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion, we dive into one of the most controversial cases in modern history: the Menendez brothers. Lyle and Erik Menendez were convicted of the brutal murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty, but their story is far from straightforward. Were they driven by greed, or were their actions influenced by years of alleged abuse and trauma?

You’ll want to listen all the way to the end, where the most important arguments are laid out, challenging you to decide for yourself: Were the Menendez brothers truly victims of their circumstances, or were they calculating killers?

    Stay tuned to the end, because your opinion may shift by the time the episode concludes. Was justice truly served, or is there more to the story?
