The four-parter chronicles a string of murders that targeted gay men in 1990s Manhattan — and the cultural and historical context that allowed the killer to go undetected for so long.

But I also suspect it’s no surprise that it takes the cops an infuriatingly long time to get there — nor that the deeply ingrained homophobia of law enforcement specifically and American society more broadly is what slows them down. “Why is the emphasis on the gay part?” a Pennsylvania cop asks Caronna at one point. As far as the authorities are concerned, “The gay thing wasn’t really relevant to the investigation other than finding out who might kill him, and where he hung out.
And it was around then, near the end of the second episode, that I realized I almost didn’t care to know what happened next.does eventually get around to the usual questions of who killed these people and how and why, but by that point they play almost as an afterthought. Almost no time is wasted on analysis of how the murderer got to be who they were or why they did what they did, and I can’t say I missed it.
