Do you remember waking up to seeing these two teenagers faces all over social media? In 2019, these two boys left an impact on the Manitoba community when they became suspects for murders committed in British Columbia. I decided that this case was relevant, as it's not only a recent case that a lot of us remember, but it also involves many aspects of criminal law. For example, the ammunition in the car and the two other murders committed by these men, prove both the Mens Rea and Actus Reus.

If you had to guess what province had the highest number of homicides, who would you guess?

The Ken and Barbie Killers reveals the unique, unconventional, and horrific story of Canadian serial killer couple Karla Homolka and Paul Bernardo. They garnered global media attention when they were convicted of murdering and raping three teenage girls, including Karla's own sister Tammy. Paul admitted raping various other women over the years, eventually bringing Karla into the fold.

The documentary unveils that Karla was an active participant in the murders. She participated in these crimes mainly due to her affection towards Paul and at his insistence. Karla was heavily abused by her partner, both mentally and physically in their relationship. The Ken and Barbie Killers clearly shows horrible mental abuse and brutal beatings perpetrated by Paul. However, the most puzzling part is that Karla never tried to get out of it until the couple were arrested and imprisoned.
