BET Networks has announced a docu-crime series, Criminals at Work.



As its name suggests, the eight-episode series explores shocking criminal acts committed in and around the workplace. Each one-hour episode features two suspenseful true-life stories where unsuspecting everyday people witness their own workplace transformed into a crime scene. Featuring eye-witness interviews, actual crime-scene footage and re-enactments, the show premieres Wednesday 6 January 2016.

Criminals at Work dissects the crimes from different points of view, including co-workers who witnessed the mayhem, the reporters who covered the story, members of law enforcement officials who participated in the investigation, and psychologists who give insight into the criminal mind.

“This show takes viewers on a plot-twisting journey as if they witnessed it themselves,” the network said. “Not all crimes are committed by master career criminals. Criminals at Work reminds everyone that the most innocent co-worker could be hiding a deadly secret.”

The series is executive-produced by Rebecca Toth Diefenbach, Valerie Haselton, Brent Montgomery, and Christine Nusbaum for Sirens Media.
