A to Z Blogging Challenge 2015: Television Tropes: F is for Forensic Documentary

Forensic documentaries show actual footage from crime scenes and autopsies, and sometimes include re-enactment of crimes. HBO's Autopsy series began running in 1994 and wrapped up in 2008. It featured actual photos from crime scenes and autopsies as well as commentary from the forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Baden.

While it might seem that only the most truly depraved of souls would be interested in such a program, there is educational value for individuals who might be interested in pursuing careers in criminal justice, forensics, medicine, or psychology. I am personally interested in true crime shows because during my entire life, I've wondered what can cause a person to completely lack empathy and to enjoy hurting and killing others.

I've always been fascinated by this sort of thing. If I could go back in time, I'd get the training necessary to become a forensic pathologist and forensic artist. 

Imagine, this amazing historical figure being buried under a parking lot. Wonder what he thinks of that!
Great information in this one, but the robotic voice is a bit off-putting.
For those of you who really want to go in depth, here is Jacob Abbott's full audio book. Dive in, history buffs!
