No lines. No sold-out venue – just the ID stars you love, the true crime content you crave, and you, from the comfort of your own home.\u201d<\/p>\n
IDCON: HOME TOGETHER will consist of four sessions running from 6 p.m. ET on Thursday, May 21st, and is scheduled to go until 8 p.m. ET. The session schedule is as follows:<\/p>\n
FROM COUCH TO CAPTURE<\/p>\n
Join crusaders of justice John Walsh and Callahan Walsh as they discuss their careers in crime-fighting and the meaningful work that they do on \u201cIn Pursuit with John Walsh.\u201d The series alone, which relies on help from an active and engaged audience, in its past two seasons has helped bring 15 featured fugitives to justice and five missing children home. The Walshes will also discuss the inspiring work that they do with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and how their work keeps Adam Walsh\u2019s legacy alive. Discussion will be moderated by SVP of production at ID, Sara Kozak.<\/p>\n
INSIDE JUSTICE<\/p>\n
Take an inside look at how the justice system works through three unique perspectives \u2013 retired homicide detective Chris Anderson (\u201cReasonable Doubt\u201d), former New York prosecutor Anna-Sigga Nicolazzi (\u201cTrue Conviction\u201d), and criminal defense attorney Fatima Silva (\u201cReasonable Doubt\u201d). What cases are they following now? How is the justice system adapting to change? How common are wrongful convictions? How is self-isolation changing the crimes committed today? Join ID for a conversation about convictions of the past and crimes of the present. Moderated by CBS\u2019 \u201c48 Hours\u201d correspondent, Maureen Maher<\/p>\n
CRIMINALLY ADDICTIVE<\/p>\n
These are the stories that make headlines. The cases you think you know, but never really do. Join our panel of expert crime reporters, legal analyst Ashleigh Banfield, crime journalist Diane Dimond, and psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig, as they discuss famous crimes that always seem to pose more questions than answers. From the purported suicide of Jeffrey Epstein to the suspicious death of Hollywood starlet Brittany Murphy, this is a discussion you won\u2019t want to miss \u2013 and you won\u2019t have to leave your own home to get the scoop. Moderated by Pamela Deutsch, Vice President of production for the \u201cID Mystery\u201d franchise<\/p>\n
AT HOME WITH JOE<\/p>\n
After 9 seasons and 142 episodes, it\u2019s time to see a new type of Joe! Fans of the long-running hit \u201cHomicide Hunter\u201d were devastated to hear that the series had come to an end this past January. But with a brand-new series coming to ID later this year, we have not seen the last of Joe Kenda. Fans are invited to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear from Joe himself in the comfort of his own home \u2013 and we all know who will be operating the camera behind the scenes and hopefully make a special guest appearance! Fans are encouraged to submit video questions to Joe in advance \u2013 he might choose your question to answer in his own signature style! Moderated by Thomas Cutler, Vice President of production for \u201cHomicide Hunter.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
