A Killer Story
Investigative journalist Joe Sexton looks into a 2002 double homicide case in Kansas after receiving thousands of emails from Eileen Umbehr, a homemaker turned citizen sleuth. Eileen and her husband Keen are convinced that Dana Chandler, the woman accused of killing her ex-husband and his girlfriend, did not commit the crime and devote their lives to fighting for Chandler's innocence.

Critics, per Wikipedia
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds an approval rating of 100%, based on 5 reviews. Joel Keller of Decider suggested viewing the series writing: "A Killer Story is as much about the people investigating Dana Chandler’s case as it is about the case itself. It’s a refreshing docuseries that takes some interesting turns." Jonathon Wilson of Ready Steady Cut wrote: "Through its unique perspective and righteous anger, A Killer Story raises some important questions about the legal system that are well worth a closer examination."
