"Confronting a Serial Killer," a new docuseries from Joe Berlinger, tells the story of the unprecedented relationship between author and journalist Jillian Lauren and the most prolific serial killer in American history, Sam Little, who recently died in prison on December 30, 2020 at the age of 80 after having avoided justice for his crimes for decades. Through the perspectives of Lauren and several female investigators, survivors and victims’ family members, “Confronting a Serial Killer” shines a light on systemic issues in the criminal justice system including bias against marginalized communities, particularly women of color, and those struggling with addiction, mental illness, and trauma.
