He recreates with actors the crimes that have shocked Chilean public opinion in a trustworthy way, even featuring interviews with the culprits themselves. All of this has earned him a large audience.The main music at the beginning of the program was composed by Edgardo Riquelme in 1993 who also composed certain themes used as incidental music in some chapters.Given its graphic dramatization of murders, rapes or other crimes that endanger human life, this series is exclusively for adults.It has 14 seasons since 1993, with two hiatus (one from 1999 to 2003, and the longest one from 2009 to 2021). Currently airing its 14th season, most of the previous episodes are available on TVN's YouTube channel for series and telenovelas and on TVN Play.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
| Mea Culpa / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Carlos Pinto as the narrator does this by appearing on screen Once per Episode, mainly before the intense scenes happen. This serves as a reminder to the audience that they're watching a dramatization and not the real thing. Some seasons enhance the effect by having Pinto popping out from unusual places. | |

Body in a Breadbox | |

Body in a Breadbox: One of the most commented cases, "El tambor" note "The Barrel" (Season 10, 2005), has its victims' bodies (the murderer's ex-couple and their 9 years old son) put in a barrel and covered with cement. | |

Carried by the Host | |
| Mea Culpa / int_4631a57d | comment |
Carried by the Host: At this point it is impossible to imagine Mea Culpa without Carlos Pinto. Chilean writer Pablo Simonetti even compares him to Alfred Hitchcock. | |

Art Evolution | |
| Mea Culpa / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: Quite expected for a long-runner. It switched to HD for season 13 (2008-2009), and for season 14 (2021) runs on 24 frames per second. | |
