What happens when ordinary people, in real-life murder clubs, set out to investigate crimes, both recent and cold cases? What happens when ordinary people, in real-life murder clubs, set out to investigate cold cases and other crimes?The Netflix hit Don"'t F**k with Cats was based on the 2012 Montreal murder of Lin Jun by his porn-star boyfriend, Luka Magnotta. Previously Magnotta had anonymously posted videos of himself killing kittens. This spurred horrified Facebook sleuths into working tirelessly to uncover his identity and location. A self-taught forensic artist uses software and coroners"' photographs to show what victims looked like when alive; a mother fulfils her graveside promise to her daughter to get the gang who had killed her; Websleuths matched the IP address of a suspicious contributor to a lottery-winning victim"'s financial advisor - his body was found in his advisor"'s boyfriend"'s garden. Sometimes citizen sleuthing goes wrong, though, with innocent people being accused of crimes they haven"'t committed, with tragic results. This real-life version of Richard Osman"'s The Thursday Murder Club is grittier, with intrepid amateur investigators delving into truly gruesome unsolved crimes in pursuit of justice.
