The Jury: Murder Trial
How much can we trust our justice system? This landmark experiment follows the restaging of a real-life murder trial in front of two juries of ordinary people. Will they reach the same verdict?
Season 3
Two brothers admit that they stabbed their stepdad more than 69 times while he was asleep, but the jurors must decide whether this was an act of calculated revenge or one of desperation...
As 14-year-old defendant Daniel takes the stand, CCTV and other evidence challenges key parts of the boys' evidence, unsettling even the most sympathetic jurors.
As the focus shifts to Daniel's brother Luke, the jurors face a difficult question: was he the ringleader or is his brother turning against him to save himself?
After heated disagreements, the jury come to their verdict; are the brothers guilty of murder or of manslaughter? And is it the same verdict as the real-life case?
