Ready for jury duty?
Join the investigation as brand new channel Sky Crime brings you every twist and turn in the world’s most fascinating true crime stories
THE QUESTION IS SIMPLE: guilty, or not guilty? But the journey there is hardly ever straightforward, filled with newly uncovered evidence and surprise witness testimonies. The world of true crime is full of twists and turns, but with the launch of new channel Sky Crime you can delve deeper into the investigations. With programmes filled with intrigue, tension and unbelievable twists, it’s the brand new home of true crime.
Take I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth Vs Michelle Carter. In 2014, American teenager Conrad Roy, who struggled with anxiety and depression, committed suicide in his car. But when text messages from his long-distance girlfriend Michelle Carter were found on his phone, seemingly encouraging him to take his own life, Michelle was arrested, and the court case sent shockwaves through the American criminal justice system.
Fascinating, but devastating, this is a case to make you think. How responsible are we for our words? Should sending a text send someone to prison? This riveting two-parter seeks answers to such questions, splitting between the prosecution and the defence, analysing the facts, meeting Roy’s family and addressing how Michelle and her legal team fought for her freedom.
You’ll need both sides of the story. Pore over the evidence. Or go with your gut. Either way, let Sky Crime take you into the courtroom.
‘I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth Vs Michelle Carter’ starts 6 October at 9pm on Sky Crime
