The compelling series offers fly-on-the-wall coverage of the community’s most intense moments as it takes viewers inside the call center and brings them along to experience the fast-paced action where dispatchers and supervisors skillfully navigate life-threatening situations.

In the back-to-back premiere episodes, the crisis center focuses on peril surrounding some of the youngest members of the Chagrin Valley community.

Season two begins with the episode “Mama Bear to Grizzly Bear.” Supervisor Charline Polk, the Mama Bear of Chagrin Valley Dispatch, takes a 911 call from a concerned grandfather looking for his missing 2-week-old grandchild. Charline and the team combine forces to unravel the mystery.

In the second episode that airs immediately after, “Matt on the Move,” Matt Reinke has learned the ins and outs of dispatching and is ready for the next step. Before he decides to apply for supervisor, however, he must help a young girl threatened with a knife and a panicked caller with a baby struggling to breathe.

Throughout the season, episodes will feature dispatchers and supervisors calmly taking charge, extracting information to relay to law enforcement and first responders, all the while helping confused and frightened callers on the other end of the line. Viewers will see the team tested as a couple is heard screaming over an open line; when a welfare check spirals into a pursuit; when a caller must be coached into performing CPR before it’s too late; and a neighbor who pulls a gun on a caller and her family. The season includes many impactful stories driven by the dispatchers and supervisors who are largely unseen in the community, yet make a huge impact.

OXYGEN TRUE CRIME’S ‘MASTERMIND OF MURDER’ RETURNS SUNDAY, JULY 17

Posted on by Danielle Langer





OXYGEN TRUE CRIME’S ‘MASTERMIND OF MURDER’ RETURNS SUNDAY, JULY 17 AT 7 P.M. ET/PT WITH COMPELLING NEW CASES

Most Vicious Criminals Aren’t Always Pulling the Trigger, They’re Pulling the Strings
NEW YORK – July 6, 2022 – Oxygen True Crime, the network for high-quality true-crime programming, announces the return of “Mastermind of Murder” on Sunday, July 17 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

In this must-watch hourlong episodic series, the crime is never simply solved after investigators uncover a killer. Instead, these murder mysteries provide two reveals: who pulled the trigger and who was the mastermind behind it all.

Every episode investigates a murder of an unsuspecting and beloved victim, with initial clues leading police to believe the person who committed the crime also devised the plot. However, when law enforcement furthers its investigation, everything’s not as it seems. The person who committed the brutal crime isn’t the one who carefully and deliberately orchestrated the hit, but is a pawn in someone else’s plotting. As the twisted layers of cases are unraveled, the master manipulators behind the crimes are brought to light.

Professions of love, bone-chilling threats and promises of riches are the tools used to persuade others to utterly devastate family and friends by taking their loved one’s life. Deception among family members, a never-ending fight for land and an obsession with power are just some of the factors fueling the rage that leads people to construct murderous plans. It’s easy to see the person who manipulates the perpetrator embodies as much evil as the one who commits crime.

OXYGEN’S TWO-NIGHT SPECIAL EVENT, “THE FATAL ATTRACTION MURDER,” PREMIERES SATURDAY MARCH 26

OXYGEN’S TWO-NIGHT SPECIAL EVENT, “THE FATAL ATTRACTION MURDER,” PREMIERES SATURDAY MARCH 26 AT 8PM ET/PT AND CONTINUES SUNDAY, MARCH 27 AT 8PM ET/PT

Dubbed “The Fatal Attraction Killer,” Carolyn Warmus Served a 27-Year Sentence for Second Degree Murder
Oxygen, the home for high quality true crime programming, debuts a two-night special event, “The Fatal Attraction Murder,” on Saturday, March 26 at 8pm ET/PT. Part two premieres Sunday, March 27 at 8pm ET/PT. The special features an exclusive interview with Carolyn Warmus, as well as the Greenburgh PD investigator who worked the case from beginning to end; Westchester County, New York prosecutors; jurors and reporters who covered the story first hand. All reveal what they thought about the case then and how they view it now.

When Carolyn Warmus was tried for killing her lover’s wife, Betty Jeanne Solomon, the unapologetic, attractive, young elementary school teacher from a wealthy family was named “The Fatal Attraction Killer” by the press. The moniker, borrowed from the popular film due to the stunning similarities between the movie and the trial, was a label Warmus couldn’t shake. The story of an affair that seemingly led to murder was a sensation, quickly garnering front-page news status and relentless coverage across television. Reporters from around the world descended on Westchester County to scrutinize every word of testimony, every nuance of Warmus’ body language and every detail of her wardrobe.
Throughout the in-depth special, Warmus, who never testified in her own defense on the advice of her counsel, shares her truth. She has always maintained her innocence. With no physical evidence to support her guilt, those who investigated the case and worked to secure her conviction offer the circumstantial evidence that led to Warmus’ sentence.
While Warmus’ first, grueling, months-long court ordeal ended in a mistrial, she was retried and convicted soon after.
Viewers are left to decide for themselves if justice was ultimately served. Was Warmus the unwitting pawn in a setup to distract police from the actual killer, or was she the obsessive femme fatale who murdered in cold blood?
In the latest turn, New York prosecutors have agreed to DNA testing of one of the few pieces of evidence found at the crime scene. Warmus’ legal team are hopeful the results will vindicate her.
“The Fatal Attraction Murder” is produced by Entertainment One (eOne) with Tara Long, Geno McDermott and Ben Megargel serving as executive producers along with Lorri Leighton, who also directs. Steve Lee Jones serves as executive producer for Bee Holder Productions.

OXYGEN’S “911 CRISIS CENTER” REVEALS THE FAST-PACED INNER WORKINGS OF AN EMERGENCY CALL CENTER AND THE UNSUNG HEROES EXPERTLY HANDLING REAL, HIGH-STAKES DISTRESS CALLS ON SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6 AT 9:00PM ET/PT

he New Series Gives Viewers a Front Row Seat to the High-Intensity Environment Dispatchers Thrive In During Emergencies
NEW YORK, NY – October 19, 2021 – Oxygen, the home for high quality true crime programming, drops viewers in the middle of the action at a dynamic Chagrin Valley area emergency call center in Ohio. At the center, the responders’ calm demeanor, quick thinking and ability to draw out essential information from callers in the midst of extreme situations is often the difference between life and death. From gut-wrenching to heartwarming, these very first responders hear it all over the course of a 12-hour shift. The all new series “911 Crisis Center” premieres Saturday, November 6 at 9:00pm ET/PT.

Team members’ experience varies from those who are 20-year veterans to those who are just starting out. However, all dispatchers are primed and ready to respond to a wide array of panic-stricken callers. Hearing callers terrorized by shots fired, angered over stolen cars, tearfully pleading during life-threatening medical emergencies and anxiety ridden over lost children makes working efficiently critical. The dispatchers work to swiftly extract needed intel while calming the callers, providing them with detailed, life-saving instruction and relaying all pertinent details to law enforcement on the ground and en route.

“911 Crisis Center” also examines the friendships between the dedicated professionals. The bond this tight-knit group has formed goes deep. They support each other through challenging calls and lift each other up when they’re experiencing tough times personally. However, not every moment of a shift is rife with traumatic calls. The dispatchers celebrate birthdays, share homemade treats, and crack inside jokes that lighten the mood. They also try to heed the ever present warning to never, ever jinx a shift by saying things seem “quiet” at the call center.

From Warner Brothers Unscripted Television, “911 Crisis Center” is produced by Shed Media in association with Green Lakes Productions with Dan Peirson, Lisa Shannon and Adam Kassen serve as executive producers.
