Who Killed Jenni Rivera? is a new docuseries that focuses on the death of award-winning Latin superstar Dolores Janney Rivera Saavedra, artistically known as Jenni Rivera or 'La Diva de la Banda' (1969-2012).

Nominated for four Grammy Awards, Rivera was one of the most important Sinaloan singers of her time and sold more than 25 million records throughout her musical career that began in 1992 and ended on Dec. 9, 2012 when the Learjet in which he was traveling crashed on the outskirts of Monterrey, Mexico.

It also intends to reveal new testimonies about the death of the artist.

The docuseries will air three hour-long episodes and will premiere on Dec. 6, 2022 on Peacock in the United States. The release date for Latin America hast not been revealed.
