EXCLUSIVE: Hulu has greenlit a docuseries about the murder of Mike Williams, a Baptist from Florida who was originally thought to have been eaten by alligators.
The untitled four-part series will premiere over the summer on Hulu and is produced by UK production company Plum Pictures and ABC News Studios. Post-production is currently underway.
The true-crime series chronicles the events surrounding December 16, 2000, when Williams set out for a duck hunting trip on Lake Seminole and never returned.
Williams and his wife, Denise, had what seemed like an idyllic friendship with Kathy and Brian Winchester in Tallahassee, Florida.
The two young couples loved hunting and the great outdoors, doing everything as a foursome, including planning the birth of their babies within months of each other.
But after Williams went missing and Brian Winchester divorced Kathy and married Denise, the accident suddenly looked a little more sinister.
In 2017, nearly two decades after Williams vanished, Brian Winchester admitted shooting his friend. A year later, Denise Williams was convicted of plotting to kill her husband.
Hulu’s series will include exclusive access to Kathy Winchester, who went to extraordinary lengths to discover the disturbing truth of what happened to Williams.
The documentary marks the second time Hulu, Plum Pictures, and ABC News Studios have collaborated after making Little Miss Innocent: Passion. Poison. Prison last year.
Little Miss Innocent spotlighted convicted killer Kaitlyn Conley as she attempted to explain why she was wrongfully sent to prison.
