Fame leads to murder
About Death by Fame
Fame has its perks and its downsides, but no one expects murder to be part of celebrity. Death by Fame features stories of murders about famous, almost famous, and aspiring actors, musicians, models, fashion designers, reality TV stars, and filmmakers, either as victims or suspects.
Included in episodes are the stories of detectives who investigated the cases, family and friends of victims, and police interviews of suspects.
Some of the cases involve people as famous as Run-DMC’s Jam Master Jay, and others only aspire to fame, but all had their lives and career paths changed by murder. The show might make any wannabe celebrity think twice.
