Every year, over 200 people in the UK are convicted of murder. A guilty verdict can only be challenged if new evidence comes to light - and less than 1% of cases are ever overturned. 'Conviction: Murder at the Station' follows a team of experts as they investigate whether evidence exists that could challenge the conviction of a man in prison for a murder he denies.
Conviction - Murder At The Station
Every year, over 200 people in the UK are convicted of murder. A guilty verdict can only be challenged if new evidence comes to light - and less than 1% of cases are ever overturned. ‘Conviction: Murder at the Station’ follows a team of experts as they investigate whether evidence exists that could challenge the conviction of a man in prison for a murder he denies. Inside Justice is a specialist charity led by Louise Shorter, supported by a panel of criminal lawyers, ex-police officers, and forensics experts who assist prisoners protesting their innocence. This series follows Louise as she investigates a case, looking for evidence that could present grounds to bring an appeal - and ultimately overturn the conviction of a Southampton man in prison for the murder of his secret lover. This two-part series from James Newton (director of the BAFTA-nominated ‘The Detectives’) is a compelling look into real-life crime, through the eyes of a charity that investigates alleged miscarriages of justice.
