Crime

From the moment a slaying is reported, authorities assemble a "Murder Book" to document details of the investigation, starting from the crime scene and ending with the arrest of the perpetrator. Murder Books and the stories within them have been confidential until now. Investigation Discovery's MURDER BOOK reopens recently solved cold cases to reveal the chilling details behind the crime.
