Journalist Marco Silva explores the intersection of true crime with classic literature, citing influences from authors like Poe, Borges, and Capote. He argues the genre benefits from applying principles of detective fiction and rigorous investigation, drawing on criminology and forensic science. Silva details his new podcast series, *Sitio del Suceso*, co-created with Paula Ilabaca, which delves into real-life “red news” cases. The series is based on extensive research of court records and press archives. *Sitio del Suceso* is a production of Podium Podcast Chile and is available in both audio and video formats. The project aims to offer a nuanced perspective on true crime, grounded in thorough research and literary analysis. Silva emphasizes the importance of asking fundamental investigative questions when examining these cases.
