Following its release last Wednesday, Netflix’s new docuseries Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer has gained significant media attention for its unique coverage of Richard Ramirez’s rampage of horror during the 1980s.

In only watching the first three hours of the program, I finally understand why Morris is so captivated by the case — it’s not as cut and dry as the media initially portrayed.
FX: A Wilderness of Error will broadcast a docuseries of a former Doctor’s, Jeffrey MacDonald, criminal case that occurred more than 50 years ago. The docuseries will reveal if McDonald was indeed innocent.
