Summary
Clair Titley, director of the three-part Hulu true-crime docuseries Friends Like These: The Murder of Skylar Neese, and Dr. Rob Ambrosini, forensic psychologist and FBI polygraph expert who questioned the two teenage perpetrators in the case.
The series revisits the 2012 disappearance and murder of 16-year-old Skylar Neese in West Virginia, a case that stunned the country when it was revealed that Skylar had been killed by her two best friends. The Hulu series examines the shocking betrayal at the heart of the crime, tracing the investigation through social media footprints, evolving digital evidence, and what was, at the time, a new frontier in digital forensics. Through interviews with investigators, family members, and experts, the docuseries explores how teenage dynamics, secrecy, and online communication played a critical role in both the crime and its eventual unraveling.
