This is the story of the wrongful conviction of Brendan Dassey. When Brendan Dassey uttered “I’m really stupid Mum, I can’t help it” this was not the failure of a vulnerable teenager but the exposure of the systemic failings of Wisconsin's criminal justice system. This season join me as I step back into Manitowoc 2005 and explore and re-examine the factors at the heart of this profound miscarriage of justice.

Was it small-town judicial ignorance or a deceptive ploy to dupe the jury? A jury fattened on media soundbites, unethical press conferences, social bias, and pizza. There was conveniently an absence of expert testimony, and a very special prosecutor indeed! But Brendan's story can be changed, his path forward rewritten. The fight for justice and freedom must continue because the truth alone will not bring Brendan home.
