Andrea Canning

Booking Overview

A weekly true-crime news and analysis show covering major criminal cases, trials, investigations, and legal developments, with external reporters, legal analysts, and subject-matter experts appearing to explain specific stories. Credible pitches would include prosecutors or defense attorneys, criminal-justice and forensic experts, mental-health clinicians with relevant expertise, investigators, and journalists with direct case knowledge; booking is likely medium difficulty because the show carries a major network brand but regularly uses professional experts.
