Killer Cases kicks off its seventh season this Friday with a premiere that takes the phrase “hide-and-seek” to a whole new—and deeply disturbing—level. Airing at 9 PM ET on A&E, Death in a Suitcase unspools the bizarre and tragic case of a woman who claims her boyfriend died unexpectedly while zipped inside a suitcase.
What starts as a strange death investigation rapidly pivots to a homicide probe, fueled by chilling cell phone videos that appear to tell a very different story than the girlfriend’s initial account. The footage becomes a cornerstone of the criminal case, driving forward a murder trial packed with twists, turns, and the raw emotion of a life cut short.
Killer Cases has long been a go-to for true crime aficionados, and this season premiere leans hard into the genre’s appeal. The series continues its focus on the human cost of crime, while also providing an inside look at the grinding gears of the criminal justice system.
“Killer Cases” returns Friday, June 6 at 9:00 PM ET on A&E.
