Leading true crime network Investigation Discovery announced today the highly anticipated return of the Emmy nominated LOST WOMEN franchise and the new season of FEDS beginning next month. Octavia Spencer’s Orit Entertainment, October Films, and ID come together again for LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA which focuses on the brutal murders of two Alaska Native women and the shocking investigation that led authorities to their sadistic killer. Over three gripping hours, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA premieres on Wednesday, February 25 from 8-11pm ET on ID. On its heels is a new season of FEDS, offering unprecedented access inside America’s most elite crime fighting agency, the FBI, to bring the agency’s most dramatic cases to life. The immersive six-part second season of FEDS begins airing weekly on Wednesday, March 4 at 9/8c on ID. Both projects will be available to stream on HBO Max.

“Expanding the LOST WOMEN franchise allows us to shine a light on cases involving underrepresented women, and LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA confronts the devastating intersection of race and systemic failures that perpetuate violence against Indigenous women. Alongside this, FEDS gives us the chance to showcase the courage of FBI agents who often work covertly to bring justice for the victims. I’m honored to continue this partnership with ID and October Films to amplify these crucial stories and create bold, meaningful work,” said Executive Producer Octavia Spencer.

“Octavia brings a level of care to every story she touches,” said Jason Sarlanis, President of ID. “LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA helps expose a crisis impacting Indigenous women with sensitivity and cinematic power. And with FEDS, we are bringing viewers unprecedented access to the FBI’s most compelling investigations. We’re proud to continue building prestige true-crime storytelling together.”

As the LOST WOMEN franchise continues to provoke important conversations around society’s treatment of women, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA offers an unsettling look into the murders of Veronica Abouchuk and Kathleen Jo Henry, killed in 2018 and 2019. They join a cacophony of Indigenous voices seemingly lost without trace in the remote Alaskan landscape, but through the courage of some unlikely heroes, the twisted crimes of a potential serial killer come to light. Over three episodes packed with surprising turns, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA delivers intimate and unflinching access to the disturbing impact of a predator who turns a community into a personal hunting ground. But his arrest is only the beginning of a far deeper horror.

FEDS continues to offer unprecedented access to the FBI, featuring exclusive interviews with FBI agents and the previously untold stories of high-profile, dangerous and unusual cases as recounted by investigators, informants, undercover operatives and victims. The series unveils the brilliant tactics, tough judgment calls, and relentless dedication that make the FBI the world’s most elite crime-fighting force. From a shocking kidnapping hoax to an elaborate baby-selling scheme, each episode offers front-row seats to the real-life drama and emotion of major investigations. The full season rundown is below:
