The Jury: Skeleton in the Garden Synopsis

The Jury: Skeleton in the Garden takes a real manslaughter case and places its evidence before a completely new jury. The trial is re-enacted word-for-word, allowing the jurors to hear the case as it unfolded. Instead of professional legal experts, the decision rests with 12 ordinary Australians. At the centre of the case is an elderly man accused of killing a woman. The mystery becomes more difficult because key evidence is missing, leaving important questions unanswered. As the jurors examine what they have heard, certainty becomes increasingly difficult to find. The central question is whether this new jury will ultimately reach the same verdict as the original trial.
