Season 1, Episode 2: “Episode Two”

The second of this two part series hears from the defence witnesses, as they give evidence to clear James Byron, a man accused of murdering his wife. They’ll paint a picture of the victim as a fragile and complex character, how she’d cried wolf many times before, and importantly hear from the defendant himself. But was this murder, or was it a tragic accident or even suicide? It’s up to the viewers to decide. Judge Rinder guides viewers through this complex legal case before the verdict of the original jury in the case that inspired the story - but did viewers come to the same conclusion?
