There may be a way in which "Crime 360" is different from other real-life murder investigations. In "The 1st 48," there is always thought about whether the crime will be solved within two days. Here, however, I've seen episodes in which the likely killer is known almost immediately. Right away we learn that it might be the victim's brother who killed him, but the potential killer wasn't talking. Thus, the investigation centered around finding non-verbal evidence. This show is great in its CGI graphics that explain how death and other scientific matters occur. There is a demonstration about how to extract DNA from a blunt force object here. I thought it was a bit of a time killer. It is mentioned that the owner of the house in which the murder probably took place had Alzheimer's and so they had to get a warrant to do more searching. Near the beginning, or perhaps, the end of "Boyz N the Hood," a statistic is presented about Black-on-Black crime. The message there was the brothers were killing brothers, but here the term brother is being used literally (like in "American Me"). In a different space for reviewing this series, a commenter lamented about how this show seems to have only minority victims. I assume that is due to being filmed in Cleveland, as opposed to having some more sinister reason.
