The Jury Speaks

This four-episode true crime series reexamines some of the most high-profile and controversial cases in history through the eyes of the people who served on the original jury.

Each episode delves into a new case including Michael Jackson, OJ Simpson, George Zimmerman and Robert Durst, as jurors uncover what really happened inside the courtroom.

From surviving the longest jury sequestration in U.S. history to deciding the fate of the King of Pop, each juror will reveal what led them to their decision, if their vote would change today and how the aftermath of their verdicts subjected them to public ridicule, harassment and scorn.

Episode 1: O.J. Simpson

People think they know what happened when OJ Simpson was found not guilty for the brutal murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman but hear straight from jurors Lionel Cryer, Yolanda Crawford, David Aldana and Jeanette Harris as they recount the horrors of 10 months in sequestration and how the stress and isolation they faced affected America's most controversial verdict.

Episode 2: Michael Jackson

The episode begins with accounts from Raymond Hultman, Tammy Bolton, Melissa Herard, Paulina Coccoz and Joseph Gastelo, the jury who found music icon Michael Jackson not guilty of molesting a 13-year-old cancer survivor who frequented his infamous Neverland Ranch.

But now, after the emergence of new accusers and hard truths about Jackson's troubled childhood and tragic death, do they stand by their decision today?

Episode 3: George Zimmerman

Exploring the trial that set off the Black Lives Matter movement when George Zimmerman was found not guilty of second-degree murder in the death of unarmed black teenager, Trayvon Martin.

Hear from Madelin Rivera, Amy Tronolone, Christine Barry, and Lauren Germain and David Ramirez as they justify the hardest decision of their lives, and recount the unforgiving criticism they received in the wake of their verdict that divided a nation.

Episode 4: Robert Durst

In 2015, Manhattan real estate scion and heir to billions, Robert Durst was caught on tape professing, "I killed them all."

Hear from Deborah Warren, Robbie Nelson, Joanne Gongora, Alice Walker, Elridge Darby and Glenda Brents who found the now confessed killer not guilty of murder in 2003 — even after he admitted to killing his neighbour Morris Black in self-defence and throwing his dismembered body parts in Galveston Bay, Texas.

Find out the reasoning behind their verdict and how they would revote knowing what they do today.
