Peacock’s newly launched docuseries focus on Jenni Rivera’s tragic death. Who Killed Jenni Rivera? recounts how the award-winning Latin superstar known as “La Diva de la Banda” perished in 2012 in an airplane crash that caused a commotion in the entertainment industry.

According to reports, the series will cover the life of public relations specialist Arturo Rivera Ruiz, makeup artist Jacob Yebale, hairdresser Jorge Armando Sánchez, lawyer Mario Macías Pacheco and pilots Miguel Pérez Soto and Alessandro Torres Álvarez who died alongside Rivera almost ten years ago. Unfortunately, there are more questions than answers as the accident has yet to be determined.
