I (ALMOST) GOT AWAY WITH IT
Season 2 Premieres Tuesday, October 26 at 10 PM (ET)
The perpetrators' stories may differ, but the motives are always the same - to stay out of prison and live life on the lam. The people profiled in I (ALMOST) GOT AWAY WITH IT evaded justice for years, sometimes decades, by using their families, fake identification and even violence to avoid capture. Viewers learn how law enforcement uses all means necessary to capture these fugitives. Additionally, each episode features an interview from prison with one of these slick culprits, who spill where they found shelter, how they changed their identities and how they almost got away with it.

Despite the world's biggest and most expensive manhunt, the figure at the heart of the war against terror is still at large. This hour-long special examines theories surrounding his disappearance and the continued threat he poses along with al-Qaeda.

FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY
Special Premieres Saturday, December 4 at 10 PM (ET)
In September 2008, the collapse of Lehman Brothers tipped the world into the greatest financial crisis in 80 years. How and why did Lehman Brothers go bust, in a bankruptcy 10 times bigger than Enron? Why did its collapse send shock waves through the financial markets? With the help of eyewitness accounts from people such as current U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, former Merrill Lynch CEO John Thain and Lehman insiders, ID INVESTIGATES: FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY tells the complete story of a catastrophic financial meltdown.

ID FILMS:

Debuting in August, ID FILMS provides a new outlet for independent documentary filmmakers seeking a television home for projects that shine a light on important, overlooked aspects of our justice system and showcase compelling stories of mystery, intrigue and determination.

CROPSEY: THE URBAN LEGEND
Worldwide Television Premiere on Friday, August 13 from 9-11 PM (ET)
Growing up on Staten Island, filmmakers Joshua Zeman and Barbara Brancaccio often heard the urban legend of CROPSEY, a cautionary tale invented to keep kids out of the abandoned Willowbrook Mental Institution. But in 1987, this ghost story became all too real when a 13-year-old girl with Down syndrome went missing. Realizing that the urban legends of their youth may have actually come true, the two filmmakers delved into the mystery surrounding five missing children and the real-life boogeyman linked to their disappearances. Hot off the film festival circuit, CROPSEY is sure to deliver all of the elements of a real-life thriller that ID's audience craves.

FINAL JUDGMENT
Worldwide Television Premiere on Friday, October 8 PM at 10 PM (ET)
Roger Weisberg and Vanessa Roth's riveting film, No Tomorrow, makes its world television debut on ID under the title FINAL JUDGMENT. Exploring the role of media in the criminal justice system, this documentary provides commentary on the use of the death penalty. In 2005, Weisberg and Roth created Aging Out, which explored what happens to teenagers after leaving the foster care system. Tragically, it also became a chronicle of the last year of the life of one of its central characters, Risa Bejarano, who was murdered shortly after the film was released. This follow-up film looks at how the original documentary unexpectedly became the centerpiece of a dramatic trial in Judge Lance Ito's courtroom that would determine whether the alleged killer would live or die.

SPECIALS

AMERICAN OCCULT
Three-Part Special Premieres Saturday, October 30 from 8-11 PM (ET)
