Prime Video has acquired a number of compelling and independently produced true crime documentaries from UK-based distributor Sphere Abacus. All ten titles will be available on Prime Video in the UK & Ireland.

The deal, brokered by Sphere Abacus’ Head of Acquisitions Will Stapley, comprises six titles from  Woodcut Media: The Murder of Joanna Yeates which launches on 22 April (1 x 90’); The Crossbow Cannibal (1 x 90’); Krays: London’s Gangsters (2 x 45’); Murder in Concrete (2 x 45’); Confessions of a Female Serial Killer (1 x 90’) and Murdered or Missing? (2 x 45’).

Also included in the Prime Video package is Yeti Television’s Surviving the Tunisia Beach Attack (1 x 90’), Wag Entertainment’s Murderer Behind the Mask (2 x 45’) and Middlechild Productions’ The Facebook Honeytrap: Catching a Killer (1 x 90’), as well as the recently announced The Wimbledon Killer (2 x 60’) from Blink Films.

Will Stapley comments, “We are extremely proud of the relationships we have built with a wide group of indies throughout the world.  The producers included in this significant deal are best in class and we are sure that these diverse, high quality true crime titles will strongly appeal to Prime Video subscribers.”
