True Crime Series 'Born Evil' and 'Police Interceptors' Gain Viewers

The five‑part documentary series *Born Evil: The Serial Killer and the Saviour* examines the crimes of American killer Hadden Clark, who was convicted of multiple murders including a six‑year‑old child. First released in the United States in 2024 on Investigation Discovery, the series is now available in the United Kingdom on Now TV and HBO Max and has been described by viewers as one of the most disturbing true‑crime programmes.

Meanwhile, the British police‑reality show *Police Interceptors: Taking Down the Shoplifting Gangs* premieres tonight on Channel 5. Set in Lancashire, the episode follows armed response units and other police teams as they pursue violent shoplifters, including a suspect who stabbed a security guard and another who stole £900 worth of beauty products. The programme highlights the tactics used by organised crime groups targeting supermarkets and shops.

Both series have attracted strong reactions from true‑crime fans, who praise the intense storytelling and real‑world policing focus.
