Anna Webber The cultural obsession with stories of real-life stories of mystery, justice and deception was spotlighted at Variety’s True Crime Summit presented by Investigation Discovery at SXSW on Friday.
The most influential voices in the true crime space lead the day’s programming, which included industry experts like Nancy Grace, who had a keynote conversation with Variety publisher, Dea Lawrence; Mary Robertson, who directed “Quiet on Set”; Natalie Morales, from CBS News’ “48 Hours”; and John Allen, the podcaster and YouTube star behind “MrBallen.” Over the course of the summit, panelists covered everything from where they begin their investigations to how producers decide on a story.
