Deadly Sins is an American true crime show that premiered on Investigation Discovery in 2012. The show recounts stories about people whose lives have been consumed by one of the seven deadly sins - pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath or sloth. The show is hosted and narrated by Darren Kavinoky, with Mhari Sandoval and Justin Michael Woods serving as correspondents. Each episode of Deadly Sins follows a distinct true crime case, often featuring interviews with law enforcement officials, family members, and friends of the victims or perpetrators. The show highlights how the sin in question led to the crime, and explores the psychological and emotional motivations behind the action. The show prides itself on examining not only the crime but also the surrounding factors that may have contributed to it, such as upbringing or personal relationships. The show's format utilizes reenactments of the crimes, sometimes featuring actors and sometimes featuring animated sequences. These are interspersed with interviews and voiceovers from the show's correspondents and guests. At the end of each episode, the show includes a segment called "Sinful Thoughts," where the correspondents and guests discuss their takeaways from the case and how it relates to the theme of the episode. Throughout the series, the show covers a range of different crimes, from homicides to frauds to kidnappings. The unique angle of each episode is how the crime relates to the deadly sin in question, and the show often goes in-depth into the psychological and emotional factors at play. For example, an episode entitled "Deadly Wrath" delves into a case of domestic violence where an abusive spouse ultimately kills their partner. The show examines how the abusive behavior was rooted in feelings of anger and resentment, and how those emotions escalated over time. Another episode, titled "Deadly Lust," tells the story of a man who is addicted to pornography and ultimately commits sexual assault. The show explores how the man's compulsive behavior and addiction were directly linked to his crimes, and how that addiction ultimately led him down a dark path. Overall, Deadly Sins is a gripping and thought-provoking show that explores the darker aspects of human nature. Its focus on the seven deadly sins adds an interesting twist to the true crime genre and allows the show to delve deeper into the motivations behind the crimes. With its mix of reenactments and interviews, Deadly Sins is an engaging and informative series that keeps viewers hooked from start to finish.
