TRUE CRIME

The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker, Netflix

IN 2013, a hitchhiker calling himself Kai saved a woman from being assaulted by the driver of a car. He swiftly became a national hero, but was there more to Kai, whose real name is Caleb, than met the eye? And just what was his connection to a killing on the other side of the country? This documentary unpicks Kai’s rise from zero to hero in gripping fashion, and ultimately his equally sharp fall back down again.
