What happens

The Unlikely Murderer (Swedish: Den Osannolika Mördaren) is a 2021 Swedish crime drama television series written by Wilhelm Behrman and Niklas Rockström. The series was praised for "its fine observations of male pride turned toxic" in The Guardian. Based on real-life events, the series is an adaption of the 2018 book The Unlikely Murderer, written by Thomas Pettersson, who worked as a writer on the show. It was reported in November 2021 that distributor Netflix is being sued for defamation for the show's representation of events. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
