About this episode

The episode discusses the televised trial of Pamela Smart, exploring the implications of media influence and the justice system.

The first trial to be televised in the U.S. was none other than Pamela Smart: the teacher who had an affair with her student and convinced him to kill her husband… Or so the jury declared. Do Emily and Shane believe this trial was anything other than a “he said, she said”? Did the overwhelming media presence influence the jury? Did her sentence fit the crime?  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
