Confidential Dossier

I’ve been drawn to the darker corners of human nature for as long as I can remember. Some of my earliest memories involve sitting far too close to the TV, mesmerized by Magnum P.I., Unsolved Mysteries, America’s Most Wanted, and The People’s Court—long before I fully understood the weight of what I was watching. By eight, I knew Alfred Hitchcock was a name to revere. By nine, I had a subscription to his mystery magazine. The descent was rapid… and permanent.

​

That early exposure sparked a lasting obsession with the psychology of crime—how it stains the lives it touches, and how the minds of killers, victims, law enforcement, and bystanders alike are shaped by its shadow. I devoured Stephen King novels at eleven. By twelve, I’d gone deeper—into the world of true crime, where horror isn’t just fiction.

​

The spark never left. Over the years, I’ve returned time and again to the documentaries that haunt, fascinate, and unravel. There was no single moment that led to this blog—just a series of quiet revelations, all pointing toward the same conclusion: I needed a place to document what I saw, what I thought, and what I felt… and to guide others through the best (and worst) that the genre has to offer.

​

Though my background in psychology gives me a unique lens, The Crime Scene Society is about more than cold analysis. It’s about storytelling—the choices behind the lens, the framing of truth, the details left lingering in the dark. Here, I peel back the layers of each documentary, from production quirks to the psychological undercurrents that pulse beneath the surface.

​

And as for The Emerald Sleuth? Let’s just say the name was earned under unusual circumstances. You’ll learn more when the time is right.

When I’m not unraveling documentaries or chasing down hidden gems, you’ll find me theorizing about Harry Potter (Slytherin, of course), watching ice hockey, spending time with the people who matter most, or concocting something new in the kitchen—because even a armchair investigator can't live on intrigue alone.
