The Investigation (BBC, 2021) S0 complete (1280x720p HD, 50fps, soft Eng subs)
Bringing truth to the surface - a real life crime drama. When journalist Kim Wall disappears, attention turns to a wealthy inventor and his private submarine.
Based on a true story. In Danish and Swedish with English subtitles.
E01
In August 2017, Jens Moller, chief of homicide in Copenhagen, learns of a missing Swedish journalist who has not returned from interviewing the designer of a homemade submarine.
Initial garbled reports indicate that she and the designer have returned to harbour, but this proves to be false, as only the designer is rescued before the submarine dramatically sinks. A search for the missing woman is immediately launched, but in order to detain the suspect, Moller, with the advice of prosecuting attorney Jakob Buch-Jepson, decides to charge the suspect with murder, despite the lack of a body.
E02
As the police incident room is flooded with calls regarding the case, Jens and his team follow up various leads.
Forensics have discovered traces of human blood in the raised sub, which has to be analysed. Maibritt calls the various sailing clubs to attempt to identify a yacht seen close to the submarine, and Nikolaj tries to trace the route of the submarine on its final and seemingly fatal voyage.
Meanwhile, Jens contacts the missing journalist's parents to ask for access to their daughter's computers.
E03
With the volunteers and divers continuing their search for evidence, Jens explains to Jakob that it is very difficult without the exact trace of the route taken by the submarine.
E04
Jens asks the Swedish police to borrow their cadaver dogs, not commonly used in Denmark. Jakob is succesful in procurring a warrant from the court to seach the suspect's hard drives and a chance meeting brings the involvement of Torben Vang, an oceanographer with expertise on the complex currents in the waters between Denmark and Sweden.
E05
Even with the tremendous finds of the divers, Jakob admits that there is still too little evidence to charge the suspect with murder, despite his story having changed dramatically from his initial account. Nikolaj meets an expert on submarines who contradicts the suspect's latest statement, and a forensic computer analysis discovers some very disturbing content on his devices.
E06
The team remain focused on being able to establish the guilt of their suspect, as Jakob reminds them that the benefit of doubt lies with the accused. Jens continues to put pressure on the forensics team to provide answers, but it is Maibritt who finally pieces together enough clues to break the case.
