Things will be a little different for the upcoming spinoff Law & Order: True Crime, which will bring dramatized flair to real world cases; the Menendez brothers’ trial is tapped for Season 1.
Perhaps sadly, there are many cases with intriguing-though-off-putting details like this out there that could keep Law & Order: True Crime going for years to come.
No plans are set for when Law & Order: True Crime will hit NBC, though Wolf says writer Rene Balcer will begin writing the project once his duties on his Canadian drama The Council are completed.
Creator Dick Wolf is not being cryptic about what drove him to get this concept into development.
