Plot Synopsis

Narrated by Garcelle Beauvais, REAL MURDERS OF LOS ANGELES is a one-hour docuseries that looks beyond the City of Angels' glamorous facade to expose a dark underbelly where the pursuit of the American Dream can turn deadly. Beauvais takes viewers beyond the velvet rope by guiding them through twist and turns of true stories of victims whose dreams were shattered by ruthless killers whose lust for fame and fortune led them to commit salacious, sinful and scandalous murders. Highlights of cases covered include: a silent theater operator gunned downed at his own concession stand; a newlywed killed at home by her husband's jilted ex-lover who used their ties to law enforcement to mask their involvement for years; a curious UCLA student stabbed in the notorious "Manson Tunnel" which leads detectives on a dark journey through the occult; a former Raiderette and aspiring actress who went to a photo shoot, but never returned; and more.
