if you want bite-sized chunks... have you ever watched The First 48?

not documentaries per se, but 'real' murder investigations conducted by numerous police departments

I second the recommendation for Murder Among the Mormons and add Son(s) of Sam. Good stuff.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

"Wild Wild Country", a six part Netflix documentary about the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh cult. Watch the first episode and I think you'll be interested. I think it's a pretty fair and honest look.

Cruel Deception on Amazon

This dude got caught because of counterfeiting, not the many murders he committed

I will also recommend Mindhunter on Netflix. The first season is amazing, the second is good too.

It's about the development of "profiling" serial killers in the FBI

Why would you come here and ask something like this? You know, you look like a troll ten ways from Sunday. You come in here with a handle of Gman, asking how many guns members own, asking about "murder documentaries". You can't be serious. Somebody's half-clever, and it ain't me.

You want to be noticed? OK, you're now officially about as noticed as you can get around here.
