A woman's life ended by her boyfriend after attempting to leave her relationship. But that is not the last shocking turn of events in the story. TV Barrister Judge Robert Rinder leaves the courtroom behind to review real-life cases. Using witness accounts and drama reconstructions, Judge Rinder uses his years of experience in criminal defence to explore some of Britain's most shocking crimes. Cases unravelled include the tragic murder of 21-year-old Laura Davis at the hands of her jealous partner, the senseless acid attack on Andreas Christopheros in front of his own home and the conviction of Victor Nealon in 1996, whose case was reopened 17 years later. Other cases involve police reviews taking place decades after the crime, armed with new evidence.
