Oxygen to premiere Dick Wolf, Good Caper true-crime collab “Final Moments”
True-crime network Oxygen has slated Final Moments (8 x 60 min.), a new series from Dick Wolf’s Wolf Entertainment and ITV America’s Good Caper Content, for an April 3 premiere.
Each episode of the series will cover the investigation of a real-life murder or disappearance in which law enforcement used evidence from the victim’s last-known communications or whereabouts — from phone calls with friends or family to cell phone photos or videos, texts or social media posts to security-camera footage — to construct a timeline and try to discover what befell them.
The series will launch on April 3 with back-to-back episodes covering the 2012 disappearance of Florida businessman Charles Butler during a trip home to his native New York City, and the case of Alexis Murphy, a 17-year-old social media star who vanished shortly after a security camera recorded her at a gas station in Lovingston, Virginia in 2013.
“Final Moments dives deep into heartbreaking crimes through the lens of real footage, pictures and the social media of our victims, giving viewers direct insight into their last moments alive,” said Stephanie Steele, SVP of unscripted for NBCUniversal television and streaming. “The series provides authentic investigative access that our viewers will love, in addition to a deeper emotional connection to [the] victims via the unforgettable final moments of their lives.”
Final Moments is produced for Oxygen by Wolf Entertainment and Good Caper Content, who previously collaborated on the two-part doc BTK: Confession of a Serial Killer for A&E Network. Executive producers on the new series are Dick Wolf, Tom Thayer, Kathryn Vaughan, Jordana Hochman and Tim McConville
