In most segments, through reenactments, the programme shows the details of what happened in a crime, as well as detailed sentencing of the suspect. The narrator describes the scene of the crime, however, the current presenter would take over for the sentencing part. The conclusion of each segment offers advice to the public for their own protection and safety related to that particular segment.
