Interview with a Killer presenter: who is Yinka Bokinni & what she has been in before Channel 4 documentary

British radio and television presenter, Yinka Bokinni, 34, speaks to American murderer Brandon Clark, who killed 17 year old Bianca Devins in 2019, on Channel 4 documentary special Interview with a Killer. Bokinni will come face to face with the murderer at Attica Prison where he is being held on a 25 years to life sentence for the murder.

Clark also took photos of his victim’s body and shared them online before trying to take his own life. The murder made headlines around the world, whilst the photos of Devins’ body were shared online for months after her murder, causing her family even more pain as they attempted to process her senseless death which is believed to have been the result of a fit of jealousy on the part of Clark.

The interview is the latest documentary fronted by Bokinni, who has previously fronted a special about the murder of her childhood friend, and another in which she investigated how people hire contract killers online.
