This book examines the relationship between true crime and wrongful conviction in the age of streaming content. True crime plays a vital role in informing, entertaining, and developing public expectations surrounding justice.

It examines the effects on audience participation in seeking justice through digital enabled opportunities like crowd-sourcing, websleuthing, and online activism.
