During the early ’80s, Henry Lee Lucas confessed to hundreds of murders, bringing closure to unsolved cases and grieving families. Even with no direct evidence linking Lucas to the crime scenes, he stunned authorities with his ability to sketch victims’ portraits while citing brutal details of each attack. Yet journalists and attorneys found impossibilities in Lucas’ timeline, and DNA testing started to contradict his internationally-reported claims.

The Confession Killer docuseries is directed by Oscar nominee Robert Kenner (Food, Inc.) and Taki Oldham (The Billionaire’s Tea Party, Go for Broke, Inside the Birdcage).
