Abstract
True crime can be understood as popular cultural output, consisting of a long-form narrative that tells the story of actual criminal events, most frequently focussing on murder narratives. What Murley refers to as ‘nonfiction murder narration’ (Murley, 2008, p. 6). However, writers in the field point out that true crime may tell stories based on actual events, but the genre has an uneasy position when it comes to truth and fact, playing around with the truth of events, characters and other details in its retellings (Jenkins, 1994; Murley, 2008; Seltzer, 2008).
