Oxygen’s “The Real Murders of Atlanta” trains its lens on another shocking case this Saturday with “Murder Behind the Badge.” The episode examines the killing of a well-liked suburban police officer found shot execution-style in her own bed, a crime that sent ripples of shock through the community and the local police force.
Investigators face a difficult task: piecing together the motive and identifying the killer. They must explore both the officer’s private life and her role in the community, looking for any clues that might lead to answers. As the series consistently illustrates, Atlanta’s glittering facade can hide dangerous ambitions and deadly outcomes.
“Murder Behind the Badge” uses firsthand accounts from those involved – investigators, witnesses, reporters, and loved ones – to paint a picture of the crime and the pursuit of justice.
“The Real Murders of Atlanta” airs Saturday, May 10, at 8:00 PM ET on Oxygen True Crime.
