LOS ANGELES – USA Network won the race to produce TV’s first movie about the Washington D.C. sniper attacks.

Now the next hurdle: Will this history-writing-on-the-run be accurate?

“We present the facts,” said actor Charles Dutton, who plays former Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose in “DC Sniper” (airing Nov. 14, 8 p.m.).

“I don’t think the movie skews, leans, slants or angles itself on the innocence or guilt of [defendants] John Lee Malvo and John Mohammed.”

Cops busted Malvo and Mohammed on Oct. 24 after three weeks that terrified Washington D.C.-area residents. The snipers shot 20 and killed 13 in a rampage that baffled cops.

Dutton said he’s never met the famed police chief.

“For me, it was simply a matter of putting the humanity of Chief Moose behind what we saw every day,” said Dutton, a Maryland resident.

“DC” director Tom McLoughlin said one key moment focused on a private meeting Moose convened with all the victims and their families where the chief apologized for not catching the snipers sooner.

“This said a lot about the man, and I don’t know if that was ever publicized,” McLoughlin said.
