The Murder Sheet recently interviewed retired homicide detective Danny R. Smith. Smith appeared in several episodes of the new season of Netflix's docu-series Homicide. Homicide: Los Angeles follows several investigators as they navigate cases like the murder of Lana Clarkson by powerful, well-connected music Phil Spector.

Smith spoke to us about his own experiences, as well as the toll of the job on investigators' mental health.
