The Jury: Murder Trial

The prosecution cross-examines John, saying he provoked Helen and was simply angry. Nineteen-year-old Ollie in the blue jury is convinced it's murder but is dismissed for not understanding the complexity of adult relationships. Emily in the red jury thinks she understands why John stayed in the relationship with Helen, rather than walking away, after looking after her alcoholic dad. John admits he may have fetched the hammer from outside the house. Ollie on blue jury thinks this is significant - but not everyone agrees. The evidence ends with positive character statements for John, leaving both juries conflicted and torn.
