Netflix is back with yet another show to fill that true-crime hole in your life.

Why Did You Kill Me? is the latest true-crime to hit the streaming platform and take over our lives.

If you've ever watched an episode of Catfish, this is for you. Following the story of a mother who uses a different identity on social media site MySpace to hunt down her daughter's killer.

Following the shooting of daughter Crystal Theobald in 2006, Belinda Lane asked her MySpace-savvy niece to help create multiple fake accounts on the social media site at the height of its popularity to search for suspects in her daughter's case.

"They just started responding," says Lane in the trailer. "Ping, ping, ping." Judging by the trailer, expect the standard mix of interviews with family members, police officers, and gang members in the documentary.

Why Did You Kill Me? arrives on Netflix today, April 14.
