In True Crime Doc 'Murder, two faces' Robin Roberts examined long forgotten cases

The murders of Laci Peterson and Chandra Levy shocked the nation.

Both were well -published cases that became known names that were discussed decades later. Now Robin Roberts New True Crime Series “Murder has two faces”, examines victims, whose cases, despite eerie similarities, did not receive top -class headlines.

The true crime document that is broadcast on Hulu immerses in two cases and revealed why one became a well -known name, while the other received little or no attention.

The first entry in the series “Maternity interrupted” begins with the history of Evelyn Hernandez, a young pregnant mother who lives in San Francisco, who was missing with her five -year -old son Alex shortly before her baby shower. Evelyn's friends and family urge the fact that the police are looking for them harder and works within the community to find them, but without success.

Evelyn's case only achieves if another young, pregnant woman is missing a few months later: Laci Peterson. Laci's face and history dominate local and national media, as her husband Scott Peterson focuses on as a suspect. Scott's defense once tries to disappear Evelyn's story in reasonable doubts about Scott's participation in Lacis and bind death, which indicates that two pregnant women who are missing under similar circumstances must be the work of a serial killer or even a satanic.

But Evelyn's case becomes cold after the brief attention of the media, and her friends and family remain without answers, even after her body was discovered in San Francisco Bay, just like Laci. Her little son Alex has never been found.

The women shared so many similarities that they both were young, pregnant, had partners who had matters (Evelyn was with a man named Herman, who was married), and had loving supportive friends and family who worked tirelessly for answers.

Why is Laci a well -known name and Evelyn hardly reminded? What about Joyce Chiang, who was missing in the same area of ​​Washington DC like Chandra Levy? Or the victims of the marked killer, a young man who used an early online app to attract victims in a similar way to the Craigslist killer?

“Murder has two faces” speaks to experts from law enforcement, media and social analysts to evaluate where the attention is definitely based on racist and socio-economic differences and urges the viewer to question their own feelings.

The show shows that no victim is more important than someone else and is not afraid to recognize defects in the investigation that are often affected by assumptions and stereotypes that cause cases to become unresolved or, as being treated in the third episode, the marked murderer enables a murder to be free and further harm people.

Roberts even takes a subtle manner by incorporating clips of their own reporting on top -class cases that recognize the mistakes in media reporting and who receives attention and thus resources.

The experienced journalist recently spoke to People Magazine about the series and said: “Hope is that people say:” Oh my god, I knew this was true “and knew that there was an inequality and it was wrong.”

She continued: “And for all of us, the one in the media, in public, in law enforcement to take over and work at this point,” this is not correct, “added Roberts. “It shouldn't matter what they look like. Anyone who is the victim of a crime deserves justice.”

“Murder has two faces” is now available on Hulu.
