Retired officer Chris Horsley criticizes Disney Plus miniseries "Under the Bridge" for potentially compromising accuracy in the portrayal of 1997 murder victim Reena Virk's story.

Retired police officer Chris Horsley, who worked on the original Reena Virk investigation, says the Disney Plus miniseries "Under the Bridge," which dramatizes the 1997 murder of the British Columbia teen, does "a great disservice" to the victim, her family, and her community. The series, set to premiere on Wednesday, depicts the real-life story of Virk, who was 14 when she was swarmed and beaten by a group of teens and subsequently drowned in a waterway. Horsley has not seen the series but expresses concern that it may compromise accuracy for "dramatic effect."
