Frequently asked questions

How do I cover true crime cases responsibly and ethically?

Centre victims as full human beings rather than reducing them to how they died. Include family and community perspectives when publicly available. Distinguish clearly between established fact and speculation. Do not contact or name persons of interest who have not been charged. Consider the impact of your content on families who may encounter it. A thoughtful, humanity-first approach is both ethically right and what separates the most respected creators from clickbait producers.

What true crime content formats build the most loyal audiences?

Deep-dive podcast episodes or YouTube series on a single case across multiple episodes, "cases that the mainstream media ignored" content spotlighting overlooked victims, "what the investigation actually got wrong" analytical content, listener-submitted local case investigations, and revisiting cold cases with new perspectives all build strong, returning audience habits.

How do I research true crime cases accurately without professional investigative resources?

Court documents (often publicly available through court record request systems), archived local newspaper coverage, academic criminology research, previously published books and documentaries on the case, public records and FOIA requests, and interviews with legal commentators and crime experts are all legitimate research resources available to independent creators.

How do I monetise true crime content ethically?

Podcast advertising sponsorships (brands in relevant categories: security, legal services, self-defence), Patreon memberships with extended episodes or exclusive case files, merchandise that celebrates the true crime community identity (not the crimes themselves), public speaking at true crime events, and a companion newsletter or community all generate income in ways that do not exploit individual cases or victims.
