The Accused: Beyond Reasonable Doubt?
10pm, Channel 4
“People are sitting in prison cells with life sentences when there is evidence that proves categorically they didn’t do it. And they call that justice.” This new series speaks to people fighting convictions they believe are miscarriages of justice. The first divisive case is that of a street fight in 2005, when Jason Moore was found guilty of murdering Robert Darby. But Moore’s family and friends are campaigning for him to be freed.
