A Crime Most Queer explores crimes committed by or against members of the Queer community. Nj Hourquebie delves into true stories of murder, assault, victimisation and hate crimes involving LGBTQ people, mainly in but not limited to South Africa. With each episode, he looks into the backgrounds of each of the players, how their paths crossed so tragically, and what makes these cases “queer”, as in both relating to their LGBTQ connections and the twists and kinks that make them particularly bizarre.

S03E02 | The Kansas City Butcher | The Life & Crimes of Bob Berdella
For 17 years, Bob Berdella convinced his neighbours that he was a bit of an oddball, but mostly harmless. Others, however, mostly the rejects and reprobates of society, knew better. When a naked man, wearing only a dog collar, flees from his house in April 1988, he reveals a story beyond imagining, a story of kidnapping, sexual sadism, and murder.

S02E03 | Upstairs Horror in Downtown New Orleans | The Arson of the UpStairs Lounge (Part III)
When gay New Orleanians headed out to the UpStairs Lounge in the French Quarter on Sunday, June 24th, 1973, they had no idea that many of them would never be returning home. A fire started in the main stairwell leading up to the bar quickly spread, as patrons desperately tried to escape the burning building. Until the Pulse Nightclub Massacre in 2016, this was the worst loss of Queer life in American history.
In Part 3, we look at the aftermath of the fire, including the total disregard and lack of compassion for the victims displayed by politicians, law enforcement, religious figures and the public.
