The Global News interview arose out of an Ontario murder case in which the accused was questioned and confessed, and in which he incriminated the estranged wife of his victim. Kerry spoke about the legal and methodological considerations involved in questioning suspects in criminal investigations. The interview was included in an episode of the program Crime Beat.
