So you’re a writer, a TV show creator or a TV creative of some sort, where do you get the majority of your inspiration for great story lines? Real life of course.

But what if you are the host of Brazilian crime show that reports on real life crime? And you can’t just turn to a scriptwriter to liven up the action? Well, maybe you start to ensure that real life follows your script. Or that seems to have been the (ill)logical conclusion for former police officer Wallace Souza, the host of crime show Canal Livre who started offing people to give himself something exciting to report.

Yuck!
