By Crime HQ

May 30, 2012

We’ve got a few nibbles of news to share: 1) They’re not calling the new movie based upon Lee Child’s novels One Shot anymore. They’re calling it Jack Reacher. Makes sense to us.

Criminal Minds: Now This Is Romantic Suspense

By Anna Bowling

March 15, 2012

On the one hand, there’s Kevin, offbeat computer geek, quite possibly the only man who can keep up with Penelope Garcia in terms of marrying nerdy know-how and creative quirk.

White Collar, Justified, and Southland: Toddlers Staying Up Til Ten!

By Crime HQ

January 17, 2012

Tonight, we will be reminded what conflicted, miserable lives we all led before DVR’s.  Tonight, a trio of toddling young crime shows, all Seasons 3 or 4, return simul-freaking-taneously at 10-danged-o’clock, so even with dual tuners, we may still have to ask a friend to babysit one on their tuner or even to watch one…

You Are Guilty of Pre-Crime: DHS Tests Crime Prediction Program

By Crime HQ

October 11, 2011

So maybe that movie Minority Report was on to something. Sure, they used psychics to predict crimes, but they got results, right? What if our police could detect threats well in advance and stop criminals before they act? Well the Department of Homeland Security may have found a way. The DHS has begun testing a…

In Memoriam: Paul Lindsay aka Noah Boyd

By Crime HQ
