True crime fans, it’s time to update your watchlists. Investigation Discovery is rolling out a heavy-hitting July slate, packed with betrayals, body cams, and highly suspicious emergency calls.
Leading the charge is the return of the Jennifer Love Hewitt-executive-produced and narrated hit, A Killer Among Friends. There are also fresh seasons of fan-favorites Body Cam and 911: Did the Killer Call?
Odds are you will recognize Hewitt from her many roles in the horror/supernatural genre. Before her role in the massive hit series The Ghost Whisperer, she starred in I Know What You Did Last Summer. She also recently returned for the new I Know What You Did Last Summer. Now, she is a series regular on another amazing series, 9-1-1.
