People are absolutely raving about Netflix’s latest true crime documentary

Paul Moore

“It’s no Making a Murderer, it’s better.”

An unsolved murder, a missing person, rampant corruption and a possible cover-up in the Catholic hierarchy.

If you’re looking for something to watch this week, then The Keepers on Netflix is highly recommended.

The seven-part series concerns the tragic disappearance and death of Sister Cathy Cesnik after she went missing on November 7, 1969.

Two months later, her body was found in a field not far from her apartment. Nearly five decades later, the murder of the young nun and high school teacher remains unsolved.

In The Keepers, documentarian Ryan White examines one of Baltimore’s most shocking, chilling and infuriating cold cases in recent memory as we learn all about the disappearance of Sister Cathy through the eyes of those who knew her best, her former students at Archbishop Keough High School.

The L.A Times have remarked that “Netflix’s new true-crime series, ‘The Keepers,’ is no ‘Making a Murderer,’ it’s better” while the New York Times stated that it’s a “fascinating and devastating experience.”

The series has just been released on Netflix and it has already deeply resonated with those who have watched it.
