True crime shows have existed with real (paid) actors in mainstream media for decades. Certainly made more money compared to 'content creators'.

    There's a stark difference between reporting on or dramatizing a crime (often with family involvement) and creating deepfakes of dead kids to boost your social media presence.

    Yes, the people making the crime shows make real money.

    It's also not a deepfake but quite fake looking AI generated stuff. And childlike synthesized voiceovers.

    I frankly find making a whole tv production with actors,directors etc far more disturbing.
