Broadcaster says new strand will be ‘destination” for fans of genre and will feature content on Jeffrey Epstein and ‘bling ring’
Channel 4 is launching a new platform dedicated to true crime programming as it attempts to respond to the boom in popularity of the genre, which it says is being driven by younger audiences.
True Crime on 4 will launch in the autumn with shows including Surviving Jeffrey Epstein sitting alongside commissions such as Murder in the Alps, a three-part series about the murders of the Al-Hilli family and Sylvain Mollier in 2012.
