June Meeting of True Crime Readers

Watch Netflix's Adolescence a four-part series highlighting every parent's worst nightmare. In an English town, armed police break down the door of a family home and arrest Jamie Miller, a 13-year-old boy, on suspicion of the murder of his classmate and secret crush Katie Leonard.

It turns out Jamie spent every spare minute on the dark web, mostly in thrall of Incel sites. The impact of his arrest on his family and the community is devastating. A relevant watch in terms of the influence of misogyny and violence on young men in the first quarter of the 21st century.

Steven Graham wrote Adolescence and plays Jamie's dad.
