A serialized law drama that follows a single case for an entire season, MURDER ONE intricately explores every facet of a scandalous, high profile trial -- both inside and outside a big city courtroom -- until a verdict is reached. In addition, each episode of the series contains a completely modular legal story with a beginning, middle and end, offering viewers a sense of closure even as the major case develops.
Embracing a fascinating array of players involved in the trial -- from prominent defense attorney THEODORE HOFFMAN and his team of legal experts to key witnesses, jurors and the media -- MURDER ONE realistically and forcefully depicts the judicial system in all of its diversity. The series also reveals the behind the scenes private lives of the defense and prosecution, showing how they and their families are impacted by the trial.
