Australian Families of Crime is an Australian documentary television series that was originally aired on Foxtel and hosted by Steve Liebmann. The same episodes were then shown on the free-to-air Nine Network but hosted by actor Vince Colosimo to capitalise on the Underbelly crime series at the time, also airing on the Nine Network and starring Colosimo. Families of Crime gives an insight into some of Australia's most infamous "crime families" who wielded power, fear and destruction through the community.
Through interviews with family members, associates, victims and police investigators, their stories expose how some of Australia's worst criminal families operated their web of violence and corruption.
