For decades, true-crime fans were captivated by the French criminology expert and author Stéphane Bourgoin, known for his jailhouse interviews with some of the country’s most sinister offenders. That is, until a group of Internet vigilantes known as the 4ème Oeil Corporation (or 4th Eye) exposed him as a fraud, and his trajectory from expert to con man was masterfully untangled in a gripping 2022 New Yorker story by Lauren Collins. Now the Bourgoin affair is getting its own true-crime treatment in the three-part series Killer Lies: Tracing a True Crime Con Man. The documentary, directed by Ben Selkow, stitches Bourgoin’s story together using interviews with the 4th Eye sleuths as well as with Bourgoin himself. —Ashley Baker
