For 23 days in 2002, just one year after 9\/11, John Muhammed and his accomplice Lee Malvo terrorized the Washington, D.C region and gripped the nation, killing at random from the trunk of their blue Chevy Caprice.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in the six-hour television series, alongside the investigators, survivors and victims\u2019 families, Malvo recounts his story in a series of phone calls from his supermax cell at Red Onion State Prison in Virginia. From his childhood of deprivation in Jamaica to the murders in forensic detail, this is the definitive account of a tragic crime story.<\/p>\n<p>Detailed new testimony from Malvo recorded in prison takes viewers through the killing spree step by step, while at the same time giving disturbing but compelling insight into the evolution of the complicated relationship between Malvo and Muhammad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the first time this tragedy has been told so in depth with interviews of the investigators, police, witnesses, victims\u2019 families, and the voice of the teenage sniper who committed these terrible crimes,\u201d noted Tom Koch, VP of PBS International.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PBS International has added I, Sniper to its MIPCOM slate, acquiring the program from Arrow Pictures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1049,"featured_media":13456,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[4253,4115,2055],"class_list":["post-13455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-i-sniper","tag-mipcom-2019","tag-pbs-international","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>PBS International Acquires I, Sniper - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"PBS International Acquires I, Sniper - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"PBS International has added I, Sniper to its MIPCOM slate, acquiring the program from Arrow Pictures.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-10-08T15:40:18+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-10-09T14:45:09+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/I-Sniper-PBS-International-1019.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"585\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"297\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/\",\"name\":\"PBS International Acquires I, Sniper - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-10-08T15:40:18+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-10-09T14:45:09+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/pbs-international-acquires-i-sniper\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"PBS International Acquires I, Sniper\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\",\"name\":\"Alison Skilton\",\"description\":\"Alison Skilton is an associate editor of World Screen.
