Deliberations

What really happens when a jury retires to deliberate?

Find out each week on Deliberations, a modern day, improvised audio drama that allows criminal justice enthusiasts to step inside a jury room. Each season explores a different courtroom drama inspired by real life criminal trials in the news. Six improvisers serve as the jury and passionately react, negotiate, and argue opposing interpretations of the evidence.

Season Two examines the rights of accusers and defendants in cases of sexual misconduct. Tallahassee college student Keith Montgomery stands accused of rape, leading jurors to face the question: who is lying?

Season One explores the murder trial of dominatrix Samantha Hall, charged with murdering her submissive lover with a rope. Was it an erotic asphyxiation gone awry or a premeditated killing?
