    Robert William Pickton was a pig farmer and serial killer who targeted prostitutes and murdered them on his farm. We viewed the documentary about him, as well as the Criminal Minds episode to compare how real life crimes are shown in the media. They both had very different ways of portraying the case. The documentary had real facts, interviews, and voice recordings of Pickton. The Criminal Minds episode followed a similar storyline, but altered some of the facts to make it a more interesting and intense show that their audience would enjoy. Some of the differences were the length of time it took to catch Pickton, the isolation of the farm, and the gender of the victims.…
