The project was created-by and stars the multi award-winning Hollins brothers, King Jeff and Gorio, and chronicles the activities inside one specific Louisiana police interrogation room as Homicide Detectives listen to tales told by suspects, witnesses and other individuals related to various murder cases. Each stylishly unconventional tale opens in present day (shot in color) with an individual reading from the popular crime anthology book, "Tales from the Murder Room." The storyline quickly shifts to a flashback scenario of the Detectives involved in an interrogation of someone uniquely involved in a murder case, including suspects, witnesses and victims (shot in black and white to represent the pages of the book being read). Then, as each examination concludes the story cuts back to present day and the book is closed. Each segment consists of stories centered around different interview subjects including a man who is accused of killing his mailman, a pimp who is accused of murdering a prostitute who wants to escape the business, a blind woman who is accused of murdering a man she is having an affair with and a man accused of murdering his wife for throwing away his lucky shirt. Other segments include Lt. Rook working on a cold case file, Detective July trying to solve a mysterious letter left by a serial killer (He is assisted by a hand puppet) and in one episode Lt.
