Architect of Death: The Long Island Serial Killer
Aired in September, this documentary guides viewers through the decades of police investigation that led to the arrest of suspected Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann – and the missteps that delayed his capture.

My Son Jeffrey: The Dahmer Family Tapes
Never-before heard jailhouse conversations between infamous Milwaukee serial killer and cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer and his father Lionel were debuted in this September Fox Nation release.
Even after Dahmer was sentenced to 15 consecutive life sentences in 1992 for the deaths of 17 boys and men — and the gruesome manipulation and preservation of their corpses — his father always stood by his side.

Dahmer's upbringing and his relationship with Lionel, who famously dissected roadkill with his son at a young age, are explored in this four-part series. Dahmer was killed by another inmate in 1994, while Lionel died in hospice care this year after decades of running from his son's spotlight.
But the conversations between the father and son after the horrible truth was revealed, in which Lionel strives to understand what made his son carry out the string of killings, offer new insight into the killer's world.
