# True Crime

True Crime is a genre of non-fiction work in which an author examines a crime, including detailing the actions of people associated with and affected by the crime, and investigating the perpetrator's motives. True Crime works often deal with violent crimes such as murders and serial killers, including high-profile cases (such as JonBenét Ramsey, O. J. Simpson, and Pamela Smart), and more obscure or unsolved cases that the author wishes to bring wider attention to. A True Crime work may use either a journalistic style with a focus on known facts, or a speculative style with a larger focus on the author's personal conclusions regarding a crime.
