The critically acclaimed true crime documentary series “FBI: True” is back with Season 7, offering an even deeper look into some of the most complex and high-stakes investigations conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. With real FBI agents recounting their experiences, the show provides an authentic, behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and triumphs of federal law enforcement.
📅 Season 7 Premiere & Format
Season 7 premiered on May 20, 2025, exclusively on Paramount+. This new season continues the show’s unique format of 30-minute episodes, often released in pairs to form hour-long specials. The series is produced by Efran Films Canada, Anne Beagan Productions, Thinking Hat Inc., and See It Now Studios.
Each episode features first-person interviews with former FBI agents who narrate gripping accounts of major cases — from kidnappings and murders to terrorism and cybercrime.
🎬 Season Highlights
One of the standout episodes this season is:
Episode 9 – “Angels & Monsters: Part 2”
(Air Date: August 5, 2025)
This emotionally intense episode follows the investigation into the disappearance of a woman in a quiet Oklahoma town. As the FBI joins the case alongside state authorities, the agents begin to uncover a disturbing connection to a double homicide that occurred three years earlier — two teenage girls were found shot to death on the side of a rural road.
The case spirals into a deeper, more twisted conspiracy, and viewers are taken through the emotional toll such investigations have on the agents involved.

- Production quality – combining interviews, archival footage, and dramatized reconstructions
It doesn’t glamorize crime; instead, it offers a grounded and respectful tribute to the often-unseen work of federal agents.
