	True crime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		True crime is a genre of non-fiction detailing crimes.
		Although reports and stories about true crimes have circulated throughout human history, and (often sensationalized) crime coverage is a long-standing staple of newspaper reportage, the modern "true crime" genre often considered to have begun with Truman Capote's "non-fiction novel" In Cold Blood, published in 1966.
		Although true crime books of course center on sensational, shocking, or strange events, a secondary part of their appeal is that they often contains elements of social realism that are often not found in other non-fiction media, e.g., detailed descriptions of working class or socially marginal people and their lifestyles.

		True Crime's denouement is perplexing and exasperating, because, aside from generating some artificial tension, it contributes nothing to the story as a whole, and, consequently, serves only to cheapen it.
		True Crime follows 24 hours in the lives of two men whose circumstances are vastly different, but whose destinies become intertwined.
