10 Best True Crime Documentaries Of 2021 (So Far)

10. Murder Among The Mormons

The best crime stories add a touch of unpredictability to the case, and 'Murder Among The Mormons' has that in spades. Mark Hofmann, who was injured during a spate of 1980s bombings in Salt Lake City, Utah, provides a fascinatingly erratic case study here.

Don't discount this one on the sole basis that religion isn't your thing either - there's so much more to the story, but attempted exploitation of the Mormon church is definitely the centrepiece. Hofmann's forgeries weave across just three episodes, which makes the series short enough to tackle in one sitting.

Like many binge-friendly mini-series, you likely will be there till the end.

MATM is a gripping look at how community shapes its justice system. If that sounds like an odd sentence, then fire up the first episode and take a look for yourself. Hofmann, a colourful character who isn't as he first appears, got very bold with his aforementioned forgeries. Very bold.
