Many of the victims have a family that they were close to. Most episodes show at least one family member reacting to the news of their murder.

The earlier seasons especially show a lot more uncensored bodies than the newer ones. (Like they still cover the faces, but you can still see the blood everywhere and kinda where it came from on their body.)

Some episodes end up on a bad note whether it's a cold case or unsatisfying sentences. (Some of the suspects literally get a slap on the wrist in some cases.)

A lot. The bodies are censored, but the blood pools aren't. Plus they zoom in on the blood for certain shots.

Not on-screen, but a majority of the murders were caused by guns.
