Gah, I figured out the right search terms to feed Google: "murder store" "sting operation"
Found it — it was "The Unusuals" episode S 01 E 03, "One Man Band".

I believe this should have gone on You Know That Show.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
Hi, we were trying to remember what TV show featured a kind of serial killer store that may have been a sting operation for the FBI or other law enforcement organization?
Pretty sure it was a comedy along the lines of Reno 911 or Brooklyn 99, but I've gone through those synopses and didn't find anything quite right.
Also, not sure if this idea ever appeared anywhere else, so not really a trope, sorry.
Thanks!!
