72 Hours: True Crime was a television program that was broadcast by CBC Television. It focused on crime, specifically on the first 72 hours after a crime is committed, a critical time period for solving it. Rather than focus on fictional crimes, as do Law & Order and other TV shows elsewhere, True Crime depicted actual crimes that occurred throughout Canada, using dramatic reenactments and documentary-style footage of crime scenes. The show was broadcast in high definition television. In 2007, CBC announced that 72 Hours was cancelled when it announced its new fall season http://insidethecbc.com/newshows2007print/.
Fact: The majority of crimes are solved within 72 hours of being committed. Fact: The final 72 hours of a victim's life holds the key to the murderer's identity. Put these facts together and you have the premise for a 20-episode half-hour series that delves into the background of crimes based on Canadian police records. Utilizing documentary- style dramatic recreations, this series takes viewers into the world of forensic science, and the amazing technologies and investigative techniques applied to crime solving.
