A&E to Premiere New Original Series DEAD AGAIN, 10/2

A&E Network premieres the new nonfiction series "Dead Again" from executive producer Dick Wolf and his Wolf Reality along with Left/Right Productions. The hour-long series follows a top team of detectives who will re-examine controversial murder cases in which unresolved questions still linger long after the verdict was determined. "Dead Again" premieres Thursday, October 2 at 10:00 PM ET/PT.

The elite team of investigators include Detective Michelle Wood, a homicide officer from Chicago with 13 years on the force; Detective Joe Schillaci, a 30-year veteran of the Miami PD with a background in homicide and undercover work, and fan-favorite from "The First 48"; and Kevin "Spider" Gannon, a retired NYPD detective and supervisor. With no prior knowledge of the crime or the verdict, Michelle, Joe and Kevin will begin each investigation at a meticulously reconstructed crime scene and work the case, interviewing witnesses, forensic specialists and other key players. The question is: will they come to the same conclusion as in the original case? Or will they uncover new evidence that the killer could still be out there?

Throughout the season, the shocking cases will take viewers all over the country in pursuit of justice. In Georgia, the team re-investigates the VICIOUS double-homicide of a father and son attacked in their home. When the detectives arrive in Ohio to re-open the horrific case of a young mother whose throat was slashed while her children slept nearby, they soon learn that she had been leading a double-life. And in Texas, the investigators re-examine the brutal murder of a young art student whose case takes an unexpected turn that reveals a sinister plot for revenge.

"Dead Again" is produced by Wolf Reality and Left/Right for A&E Network. Executive producers for Wolf Reality are Dick Wolf and Tom Thayer. Executive producers for Left/Right are Ken Druckerman and Banks Tarver. Executive producers for A&E Network are Shelly Tatro, Drew Tappon, Laura Fleury and Brad Holcman.
