The Preppy Murder Story
The Preppy Murder series reexamines one of the most infamous crimes in recent American history – the 1986 killing of Jennifer Levin at the hands of Robert Chambers.
The series exposes evidence that was inadmissible in the trial and also examine the circumstances that made the story unfold the way it did. It comments on America’s untamed ambition in the mid-1980s, the rarified lifestyle of New York’s privileged prep school kids, sexism, elitism, an all-out tabloid media war that blamed the victim and an imperfect justice system.
