True crime documentaries are kinda having a moment. Sure, they’ve always been a thing — and we had a number of older entries in our bracket to prove that point — but they’ve really come into their own in the era of Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. That’s why Above the Law’s quest to determine the very best of the genre has been so fun.
We are down to our Elite Eight. And there are four great matchups across the two sides of the bracket —- and two Cinderellas are still alive. So without further ado, let’s get down to voting.
(1) The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst v. (4) Making A Murderer
Schenck Price Competes Smarter With Lexis+ With Protégé
LexisNexis sat down with John Ursin, Managing Partner at Schenck Price, to learn how the firm is using legal AI to strengthen client service and daily legal work.
Two classics of the medium are going head to head here. Which will you vote for: Robert Durst’s arrogance or Steven Avery’s legal woes?

(7) The Keepers v. (3) Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes
Will the underdog The Keepers be able to keep their winning streak alive? The unsolved murder documentary goes up against the very much solved, but chilling, crimes of Ted Bundy.

(1) Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father v. (12) Abducted In Plain Sight
This is the ultimate battle… perhaps on the entire bracket. The gut punch of Dear Zachary versus the pinnacle of WTF viewing in Abducted in Plain Sight.

(2) Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills v. (3) Evil Genius: The True Story of America’s Most Diabolical Bank Heist
Our last matchup puts the devastation of Paradise Lost against an overly involved bank robbery plot that went terribly wrong.
