Vox is a German free-to-air television channel launched on 25 January 1993 and owned by RTL Group.^[1] The channel mainly broadcasts documentaries and US series and movies.

An integral part of the night program is the series Medical Detectives / Forensic Files, which regularly gets very high ratings, sometimes up to 20%, which is rather unusual for the broadcaster.^[2]
