The Confession Killer

Let me start by saying I am a crime documentary and trial addict. The Confession Killer is a very interesting story, episode one was too slow but got better.Worth watching.

There's more to this story than Henry Lucas confessing to any murder put in front of him. It's also about the power of the good 'ol boy network and how ruthless people can be when they don't get their way. It's a nicely crafted, interesting film. It goes by quick, not a lot of filler or repetition. A worthwhile watch.

I have to admit that Netflix really make some good documentaries . This is another one to add to the list . While I was watching it I was thinking ..."Why did I/we never hear about this before ?" . I suppose the answer is quite simple . The Internet . Anyway . It was really enjoyable , and raises all sorts of questions about the US judiciary system . On a more serious note . It did leave me feeling a bit sorry for any current family members , or friends of the victims who will now be left wondering if Henry Lucas actually committed their crime ....

Excellent, highly compelling, another great documentary by Netflix. I liked the fact that not only did they do a lot of interviews of people related to the case, but also show a lot of video footages taken during the time of the events also.

The series showed just how much of a disgrace to the tradition of the Texas Rangers both Jim Boutwell and Bob Prince were with their incompetence.

Most heartbreaking was a frail, old Joyce Lemons, a mother of one Lucas' supposed victims who was interviewed early in the series but later turned out to have died before the series was aired without knowing who the actual killer/s or her daughter was.

A Must-See documentary for me, absolutely amazing.

After seeing plenty of these American docu-series now, are there any police forces over there that can do what they are paid to do, their job!
