In The Murder Tapes season 1 episode 6, titled "I Did It," viewers follow the investigation of a double homicide in Florida. The episode begins with the frantic 911 call made by a neighbor who heard gunshots. When police arrive at the scene, they find two young adults, a man and woman, dead inside the house. The detectives immediately suspect the woman's ex-boyfriend, who has a violent history and was seen near the crime scene earlier that day.
The majority of the episode focuses on the interrogation of the suspect. Through the use of interrogation footage, the viewer sees the tactics used by the detectives to get the suspect to confess. The detectives begin by trying to build a rapport and convince the suspect that they understand his situation.

Interspersed throughout the episode are interviews with family members of the victims and detectives involved in the case. These interviews provide additional insight into the suspects, the victims, and the investigation. Viewers also get a behind-the-scenes look at the forensics used in the case, such as ballistics analysis and blood spatter analysis.
Overall, The Murder Tapes season 1 episode 6 is a riveting look into the investigation of a double homicide. The use of interrogation footage and interviews provide an in-depth look into the investigation process. As with previous episodes, the show does not shy away from showing the grisly details of the crime scene, making it a must-watch for true crime fans.
