"Accused: Guilty or Innocent" Series One garnered widespread acclaim and was cited as the first comprehensive televised documentary portrait of the defence process in U.S broadcast history. Told solely from the perspective of the accused, their legal team, and family members, the series was a finalist in the Television category of the 2021 American Bar Association Silver Gavel Awards.
Two years later, in this 90-minute special we catch up with the families featured to learn about the repercussions and ripples of having gone through the U.S. justice system accused of a serious crime. Shot on location in Tennessee, USA.
