In the summer of 2021, just a year after Minneapolis became the center of a global reckoning over policing, another fatal encounter unfolded in a city still healing. The Killing of Winston Boogie Smith follows the events of June 3, 2021, when a U.S. Marshals task force attempted to arrest a 32-year-old man in a public parking ramp — and ended his life within seconds. What happened in that brief exchange remains one of the most disputed police shootings of the decade.
Told through forensic reconstruction and eyewitness memory, this three-chapter documentary retraces the pursuit, the absence of body-camera footage, and the storm of mistrust that followed. It’s a story about silence — what wasn’t seen, what wasn’t recorded, and how the lack of proof reshaped a community’s belief in justice.
From the ramp in Uptown Minneapolis to the offices of federal investigators, the series examines the system that allowed an arrest without cameras in a city still haunted by George Floyd’s death — and asks how truth survives when evidence doesn’t.

Murders of Kylen Schulte & Crystal Turner (August 2021, Utah) is a true-crime documentary story set against the haunting beauty of Moab’s red rock canyons and the La Sal Mountains. It follows the real-life double homicide of newlyweds Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner, whose disappearance in August 2021 shocked a close-knit desert community.

Through police records, search efforts, and the memories of those who loved them, the story examines how two lives rooted in kindness and simplicity became the focus of one of Utah’s most tragic modern cases. Each chapter reveals new layers — the desperate search, the community’s grief, and finally, the confirmation that the killer was someone they once knew. With restraint and realism, the story captures not only the investigation’s tension but also the emotional cost left behind.
The tone is human, cinematic, and investigative — blending forensic detail with quiet moments of reflection.

A quiet New Haven street. A silver Hyundai idling under a streetlamp. Gunshots in the cold night air.On February 6, 2021, Yale graduate student Kevin Jiang — a U.S. Army veteran and environmental researcher — was found dead beside his car after what first appeared to be a minor traffic collision. But within hours, investigators uncovered a deeper and far darker story: one that reached across academic corridors, emotional obsessions, and the fragile line between brilliance and breakdown.
Told in the style of Forensic Files and Mindhunter, this three-part narrative reconstructs the case from the ground up — from the frozen crime scene on Lawrence Street to the interstate manhunt that ended months later in Alabama. Each chapter follows the investigative turns, digital evidence, and human decisions that revealed a chilling portrait of fixation and flight.
This is not a story about violence alone — it’s about intellect, identity, and the cost of emotional silence within the world of high achievement.

The story unfolds like a film set against the gray skies of suburban Minnesota, beginning on a quiet April afternoon that will change everything. The tone is intimate and cinematic — the viewer moves from the stillness of a young man’s routine day into the chaos of flashing red and blue lights, the tense dialogue of a traffic stop, and the irreversible split-second decision that shocks the nation. The camera lingers on faces: the nervousness in Daunte Wright’s eyes, the stern but uncertain focus of the officer, the confusion between training and instinct.
As the shot echoes, the film’s palette shifts — cool daylight fading into the warm, chaotic glow of protest fires and candlelight vigils. Crowds fill the streets, chanting, holding signs, and lifting candles in trembling hands. The lens captures the city as both battleground and memorial — raw emotion set against civic grief. By the final act, courtroom scenes mirror confessionals: sterile walls, flickering lights, trembling voices. The camera settles on Daunte’s mother at the vigil, candlelight reflecting in her tears — a closing image that burns like memory.
