Family ties can twist into courtroom lies. In this episode, a public defender walks us through a case where a mother's accusations nearly cost her own child their freedom. The prosecution thought "mom knows best" would be enough to win the jury — but when the defense peeled back the layers, it turned out mother knows worst.
With relentless advocacy and a sharp eye for the truth, the defender exposed the contradictions and bias driving the state's case, and the jury returned the only verdict that fit: not guilty.
It's messy, it's dramatic, and it's proof that not even family drama can outweigh reasonable doubt.
