We’re now up to four streaming series in 2022 about scandals and killings involving members of the Church of the Latter Day Saints or offshoots of the church — four separate stories that played out over various periods.
- In March, Netflix premiered the documentary series “Murder Among the Mormons,” about Mark Hoffman, a forger who created historical documents changing the narrative of Mormon history. In the 1980s, Hoffman planted bombs that killed two people and injured another.
- April brought the release of the FX on Hulu dramatic series “Under the Banner of Heaven,” the story of two brothers who were members of a radical Mormon splinter group and in 1984 killed their sister-in-law and her infant daughter.
