About this show

Are the deaths of hundred of young men the result of a single killer, a gang of homicidal psychopaths or merely accidents? Is there a national murder conspiracy hiding in plain sight, or is the whole scenario a series of coincidences? A myth? These are the questions surrounding the Smiley Face Killings.

I am a true crime buff and this show is going to be right up my alley. After watching the first episode that was released free, I cannot wait for the rest of the season to be released. Someone is responsible for these murders & the families deserve justice. I am super excited for the release of the remainder of the episodes so I can purchase & watch the entire season. If you like true crime, this show is for you. I recommend it to anyone that likes true crime shows!

This is an excellent documentary series! The 4 men on the team are very articulate and experienced investigators. I honestly believe that police departments are extremely reluctant to connect crimes, insisting that there are no similarites between crimes so they won't have to investigate further; just say "accident" and close the case. These parents are getting short-changed by police. This series is revealing a lot about police methods and rightly so!
