Based on the experiences of a CSI video technician, Confessions of crime consists of weekly episodes of various crimes that were confessed on video tape. Most are homicides where the defendant will confess to the crime without remorse.In the early days of CSI, criminals were not afraid to talk to District Attorneys on video tape, as the technology was new to both the criminal and the DA. The candor that each suspect would talk was amazing to both the police and the DA. The creator of the series, Andrew Novick, brings to the show real life experience that has to be seen to be believed. Today the use of video in CSI work is commonplace, and many defendants are hesitant to talk as freely today as they were when Mr. Novick was part of the CSI team for the DA. A must see for anyone in forensic sciences.

These are real crimes...

Warning: Spoilers
I watch true crime daily and this show is not up my alley.
It's from 1991 so that's part of the quality production and breathy host.
Spoilers ahead be warned.. There are all different types of crimes being explained.
The one with the special needs boy and living on the school bus is particularly devistating because these people have zero remorse or insight.
It's not a bad show, just badly done.
The amount of shows and quality sadly hasn't gotten much better a lot of times.
At least this one does have the real people and their explanations.
It's hard to watch them not be challenged on any of their statements.
