Devoted husband. Trusted doctor. Respected member of the community. Serial killer. Harold Shipman was the mild-mannered physician who fooled a nation, secretly killing over 250 people over a 30-year period. Featuring exclusive and intimate interviews with the only psychiatrist to ever assess him, his colleague from Pontefract Hospital where he began killing, and relatives of his victims, this series traces Shipman's story from his early childhood to the eventual unravelling of decades of deceit that led to his conviction. Using dramatic reconstructions of his crimes, in particular the 12 people he murdered in the same tower block, Harold Shipman offers a fascinating but chilling insight into the mind, methods and motivation of a callous killer.

Once a member of the Sicilian Mafia has been initiated by having the image of a saint branded on his palm and mingled his blood with that of his Godfather, there is no going back. He is a Mafioso for life, and any breach of I'omerta, the law of silence on Mafia matters, is punishable by death. When Claudio Samperi, for years a mafia boss in Catania, defected to the police, the Mafia put up a reward of half a million Euros for his head. But Samperi managed to escape via a crime witness protection program. In this video he provides a unique insider account of life in the Mafia. It;s a story of blackmail, murder and drug dealing; but also of the wives and mistresses of the Mafia bosses, and of the luxuries that life as a man of honor in Catania afforded Samperi. He also provides startling revelations about cooperation between the Mafia and members of the upper echelons of Italian professional society.

This gripping documentary exposes the alarming rise of sexual predators on the Internet. In this fast growing criminal arena, one in five young people with Internet access are sexually approached on the web. The predators slip silently into homes, assuming false identites to attract their unsuspecting victims. A Stranger in Our Home tells the disturbing tale of two teenagers. Believing he was exploring sexuality with another 13-year old boy, Daniel shared all his secrets with his online friend. In reality he was talking to a 59-year-old pedophile who eventually persuaded him to leave his family in Canada and meet him in the U.S. In another example, Stephanie agreed to meet her teenage boyfriend in a motel parking lot after establishing an Internet relationship with him. He turned out to be a married man in his 40’s with children. These cases become even more frightening when we hear details of such stalking from the confession of a jailed pedophile. The police are having a difficult time catching up with these virtual criminals. Adult College High School

In Texas in 1999, a minister and his wife were found murdered in their home, which sits 50 yards away from the town's train tracks. After analysis, police found similarities to a woman's murder that happened five months earlier in a suburb of Houston -- she also lived near train tracks. Fingerprints found at both crime scenes match, and the prime suspect in the Houston murder case, Rafael Resendez Ramirez, is dubbed the "Railway Killer." One month later, another body is found. This time the killer taunts police with newspaper articles of his own terror and a toy train next to the dead body. While a manhunt ensued, Ramirez was brought to justice because of the close ties the FBI had formed with Ramirez's family, who convinced him to give himself up to the police.

If your late model car goes missing, don't expect to see it again soon. Chances are it's being rapidly dissected by swarming thieves, the parts packed into containers destined for ports in the far off Middle East. There, the stolen pieces will be unpacked and assembled like a mosaic, then rebirthed as a shining "new" vehicle.
Chris Masters reveals the various tricks of the stolen car trade and traces the spectacular crash of one big syndicate following an investigation that ran for six months and involved 450 police and extensive phone taps.
While insurers and smash repairers blame each other for encouraging crooks, technology may hold the key to beating them. Masters looks at an Australian proven anti-theft invention – the spraying of thousands of uniquely coded microdots on the car’s underbody – and asks why manufacturers have been slow to take it up.
