As Close to Crime
This channel is a repository for videos that either serve as companion pieces to specific posts from my true crime blog (located at http://asclosetocrime.blogspot.com/) or are just crime-related clips that interest me and now possibly you.
These are shared with the hope that I'm not truly violating any copyright laws and that these clips will fall under the guidelines of "fair use." Believe me when I say this is certainly a not for profit venture.
I've started a sister channel called Have You Seen This? The bulk of those videos come from my vast collection of VHS recordings; I'm converting those tapes to mp4s to give them a longer shelf-life.
I also have an Instagram account called, quite predictably, asclosetocrime.
