Episodes
Political Assassinations
The assassinations of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Rwandan President Juvénal Habyarimana, and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin have something key in common: these political assassinations triggered war, genocide and the deaths of countless others. When politically motivated assassins kill, the outcome is often the same: from one death many.
A Danger to Peace
Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and John F. Kennedy were proponents of peace and progressive ideals. Who, then, were the individuals driven to annihilate their dreams? We examine the lives of these assassins, the events that propelled them to take their fatal shot, and the legacy that those who were killed left behind.
The Shadow Killers
Information is power but it can also be dangerous. People are killed if they know too much. From Mujahideen leader Ahmad Shah Massoud and former Russian secret service agents Alexander Litvinenko and Sergei Skripal, to Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, go behind the secretive world of assassins and the extraordinary methods used to silence the outspoken.
Criminal Organizations
Brainwashing is achieved in many ways, but its target is always a susceptible mind. From suicide squads and murderous cult members to deluded misfits hell-bent on fame, explore how the mind can be manipulated, transforming ordinary individuals into lethal assassins.
