ID DEBUTS NEW SERIES "WHO HIRED THE HITMAN?"

(New York, NY) - Today, Investigation Discovery, the leading true crime network, debuted a first look at the new six-episode series WHO HIRED THE HITMAN?, which explores dark and dangerous cases of contract killings where money, betrayal, and cold-blooded ambition collide. WHO HIRED THE HITMAN? premieres on Tuesday, November 4 at 10/9c on ID, with new episodes airing weekly. Episodes will be available to stream the next day on HBO Max.

Featuring six different cases, WHO HIRED THE HITMAN? delves into the twisted trails of phone calls, endless suspects, deceiving alibis, and the hidden motives of murder-for-hire plots. Over the course of the season, episodes unravel the twisted web of each unique case from a murder of a snow plowman that puts his community on edge to a real estate entrepreneur who finds himself at the center of multiple murder attempts. At the heart of it all lies one haunting question: who is the mastermind pulling the strings?
