Did a Brazilian TV host arrange murders to boost ratings?

In the late 2000s, the host of northern Brazil’s most-watched TV shows was a hero. Wallace Souza gained infamy for his sensational program “Canal Livre,” not only because he was a former cop set on cleaning up the streets, but because his team was always the first to be on the scene to report on the horrific crimes supposedly plaguing the area. They’d arrive so early, in fact, that suspicions turned to Souza himself as the criminal mastermind orchestrating the crimes for viewership.


Award-winning documentarian Daniel Bogado joins Crime Story to discuss his docuseries Killer Ratings for an in-depth and human look into the Souza case.


You can watch Killer Ratings on Netflix.
