These will include examinations of the murder of Sarah Everard in the U.K. by Wayne Couzens, a serving police officer at the time; and the murder of Gabby Petito by her fianc\u00e9 Brian Laundrie in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p><em>Faking It<\/em> will also tackle the conviction of R. Kelly for sexual abuse and sex trafficking and revisit the story of convicted British killer Mick Philpott, ten years on from killing six of his own children.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to greenlighting the specials, Discovery has commissioned Shearwater Media to produce a six-part sixth season of <em>Faking It<\/em>, which will dig into other criminal cases of recent times.\u00a0The series follows experts in body language, linguistics and forensic psychology as they examine footage and interviews of individuals connected to recent high-profile crimes, investigations or controversies.\u00a0The new season will air on Quest Red in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>Clare Laycock, senior VP of planning and insights and head of entertainment at Discovery UK, said: \u201c<em>Faking It<\/em> continues to be one of our most popular formats, providing audiences with a unique examination of some of the most high-profile criminal cases across the U.K. and the globe.
