About

You can watch City Confidential (1998) for free on Hoopla.

Tells the story of one crime, the ensuing investigation, and the ripple effect it had on a community. Speaking with family, friends, detectives, journalists, and others close to the case, the series mixes firsthand accounts and archival footage to explore the crime and its outcome.

Shadowy archival footage and fractured firsthand accounts build a heavy, suffocating sense of local tragedy. This investigation moves beyond the police report to trace how a single violent act permanently scarred an entire neighborhood.
