Nancy Grace Departing HLN

Nancy Grace is departing HLN in October, after 12 years at the Turner Broadcasting System-owned network. Grace is host of a self-titled show at 8 p.m. focused on criminal cases, often involving women and children.

“Nancy has worked tirelessly on behalf of the missing and exploited for more than a decade on HLN,” Ken Jautz, CNN executive VP said in a memo. “She gave a voice to the voiceless, and we are extremely grateful for her contributions.”

Grace, 56, told the Hollywood Reporter she will remain in the media, including a venture with a large digital component.
