CRIME + INVESTIGATION focuses on factual crime programming and documentary content related to criminal investigations. The channel airs true crime series, forensic science documentaries, and case study analyses that examine real-life criminal events. Its programming in Germany includes German-dubbed or subtitled versions of international productions, alongside locally relevant content that explores criminal cases from German-speaking regions. The schedule typically features episodes that reconstruct crime scenes, interview law enforcement professionals, and present evidence-based storytelling without dramatization. Viewers interested in legal procedures, detective work, and psychological profiles of offenders make up the core audience.
Online streaming access for the channel is available through select German television providers that include it in their digital packages. TV guide listings in Germany show the channel operating under its standard broadcast name, with programming blocks that often repeat key documentary series at different times to accommodate varied viewing schedules. The content avoids fictional crime entertainment and instead prioritizes material sourced from actual police archives, court records, and investigative journalism. No original German productions are produced by the channel itself, as it relies on acquired programming from international distributors.
