A new interactive experience lets you decide the verdict in a criminal trial

Following on from Channel 4’s Murder Trial broadcast this week, the original BBC featured ‘The Murder Trial Live’ is back on tour offering a realistic insight into the British legal system.

You have been selected for jury service. The Murder Trial Live is coming soon to St Helens, the interactive experience sees you join a jury to determine the outcome of a criminal trial.

Written and delivered by real criminal barristers the trial you will participate in is based on the true story of Dennis Nilsen & Jeffrey Dahmer.

You will meet the defendant Jack Brewer whom the prosecution believe brutally murdered over 20 people, even consuming part of their victims flesh. A vast array of forensic and post mortem evidence suggests that Brewer carefully plotted, abducted and murdered his victims in cold blood.
