On Friday, the first trailer was released for Investigation Discoverys new season of its hit The Curious Case of series, which looks into the conservatorship under which former Jackass star Brandon Bam Margera was placed while he was being treated for substance abuse and addiction.

The trailer for the ID series shows Margera caught between BJ Corville, a lawyer who discovers the former Jackass star is in a legal guardianship being led by Lima Jeramovic, a tech entrepreneur using her VR technology to treat Margeras addiction. The premiere episode of The Curious Case Of Bam Margera focuses on the Jackass and Viva La Bam stars tumultuous journey toward sobriety. This included the introduction of a conservatorship, which is a legal guardianship where decision-making power is handed over to one individual or several other people. Britney Spears battle to be released from her conservatorship spawned a grassroots movement and eventual success for the pop icon in 2021 after 14 years.Im the Britney Spears of Jackass, Margera declares at one point in the trailer, referencing the singers messy ordeal.

While Margera was central to the shows core crew of merry pranksters, he was cut loose from Jackass 4 after a drug test returned positive. In 2021, he argued in a lawsuit that he suffered from physical and mental disabilities and therefore his termination amounted to illegal discrimination. In addition to several stints in rehab since 2009 to combat his alcohol abuse, Margera has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

Set to premiere on Jan. 13 on Max, IDs latest The Curious Case of series features interviews with Jeramovic, Corville, Margeras family and his former Jackass co-star, Steve-O.

This season of the series that follows true crime and celebrity scandals also features Beth Karas, a legal analyst who appeared in The Curious Case of Natalia Grace. Previous seasons of the series include one looking at Nicholas Rossi, a man who faked his death to evade justice; another on Jon and Carie Hallfords funeral home of horrors; and one that probes the case of a religious doomsday cult centered around worshipping cats.

The Curious Case of series is produced for Investigation Discovery by Hot Snakes Media.
