Next Episode of The Jury: Death on the Staircase is
Season 1 / Episode 4 and airs on 27 November 2024 09:30
This groundbreaking series follows a re-enactment of a real manslaughter case, presented word-for-word with actors, before a new jury of 12 everyday Australians.
The 12 jurors are introduced to each other and the manslaughter case that will become the focus of their lives for the next eight days.
By day three of the trial, the jury is engrossed in the case and thoughtful about their role in it. They hear from a neighbour who heard the prelude to the tragedy.
Day five of the trial delivers a series of surprises for the jury. They are bundled onto a bus and driven to the scene of the crime where speculation ramps into overdrive. When they return to court, juror Van is looking forward to an autopsy report for some cold, hard facts. The prosecution calls medical witnesses who meticulously examined the crime scene and Carlo's corpse. A forensic expert also describes unusual injuries on Shaun's body, and the discovery of DNA from a third person. The judge forces a reckoning: asking the jury to deliver a mid-point decision.
The jury is locked in passionate debate. Anya says they are all full of doubts and then Craig drops a bomb. Unable to agree on a unanimous verdict to acquit Shaun, the trial continues. The defence barrister presents his own forensic expert, to throw doubt on the veracity of the prosecution argument. By the time our jury hears the prosecution's gripping closing argument, even the most sympathetic are leaning towards guilty. How will this impact the jury's final decision?
