Crimes That Changed the World (2023)

Ended

Most major crimes are burned into our collective memory because of their cruelty or a spectacular plunder. Yet the crime itself often obscures its consequences. If you take a closer look, you will discover cases that made history because they shaped our understanding of morality, right and wrong. From the Age of Enlightenment to the end of the 20th Century, the three-part history-crime series examines four spectacular crimes that attracted international attention in each of its episodes - Lincoln's assassination, Jack the Ripper, the Dreyfus affair, the Lindbergh kidnapping, the Sarajevo assassination, the murder of Sharon Tate and the Columbine high school massacre being just a few.
