The Ethics of Giving a Voice to a Murderer
Kim Devins, the mother of murder victim Bianca Devins, is speaking out against a documentary titled "Interview with a Killer" that features an extensive interview with her daughter's killer, Brandon Clark. Devins had declined to participate in the project after learning of its focus on Clark. She expressed her concern that the documentary would give Clark a platform and divert attention away from the victims. Devins sent a letter urging the production company and Channel 4 not to air the documentary, but they responded that it would proceed as planned. This case highlights the ongoing debate surrounding true crime coverage and the ethical considerations of featuring perpetrators in documentaries without the consent of victims' families.
