​After five long years of hiatus since it’s last airing on Kapamilya Channel in October 17, 2020, ABS-CBN News brings back “SOCO: Scene Of the Crime Operatives”, as a Limited Crime Docu-Drama exclusively available for streaming on iWant for all Basic and Premium Subscribers of the platform.

Veteran broadcast journalist Gus Abelgas returns to ABS-CBN with a refreshed version of “SOCO”,  featuring a new team of reporters: Zyann Ambrosio, Dennis Datu, Jeff Caparas, Lyza Aquino, and Jessie Cruzat, who will share their firsthand insights and experiences from the cases they all have personally covered.

In every episode of this returning Investigative Docudrama series, it uncovers compelling crime stories through detailed reenactments, first-hand interviews, and crucial evidence that brings viewers closer to the pursuit of justice. Adding a new layer to its storytelling, the program will now present autopsy findings, witness statements, and conversations with law enforcers and forensic experts to draw audiences deeper into the case. 

The docudrama remained as a powerful platform  that not only examines crimes but also honors the resilience of victims’ families and the unwavering resolve of law enforcers and journalists to serve justice. With its renewed format and installment, SOCO continues its mission to shed light on real crimes and the pursuit of truth behind them, reaffirming its place as one of the country’s most respected true-crime programs.

SOCO premieres this coming October 24, 2025 at 20h00 on iWant – exclusively to subscribers of Basic Plan, starting with an investigation about Ebeng Mayor murder case. Enjoy this, as well as all iWant Originals and exclusive content for only PHP 35 per month, or USD 4.99/month outside the PH (or equivalent currency).
