Lucy Middelboe, FirstLookTV adds “Murder by Medic is proof that there are opportunities out there for compelling content when produced with the international market in mind.

Executive Produced by FirstLookTV’s Creative Director, Rachel Bowering, Murder by Medic explores what happens when medical professionals try to kill rather than cure. By piecing together the hard evidence, the means and the motive to create a full picture of each case the series tells the stories of 50 medics who have murdered their patients or used their medical know-how to kill closer to home. From doctors to psychologists to dentists to nurses, each episode delves into a different case; examining the chilling true tales of medics who break the Hippocratic Oath and kill.
Told through poignant interviews with the loved ones of victims, Murder by Medic also employs key video and audio evidence, revelations from investigators and legal teams, and insights from a distinguished panel of experts.
