Beyond Reasonable Doubt – Alexander McLeod Lindsey (1977)
Synopsis
In 1964 Alexander McLeod Lindsey was sentenced to 18 years in jail for the brutal bashing of his wife Pamela, who recovered but was severely brain damaged as a result. A judicial enquiry five years later upheld the original jury decision despite new evidence that cast even more doubt on whether the jury could have decided beyond reasonable doubt that he was guilty.
