Did Jesus have one trial or two? And what really happened in the courtroom, if there was one at all? In this tenth and final episode of season one, we take a lawyer’s approach to one of history’s most debated legal proceedings: the trial of Jesus. With no contemporaneous records and conflicting accounts shaped by religious and cultural biases, the truth remains elusive. Join us as we examine the evidence, explore the mysteries, and challenge what we think we know about this ancient case.

The investigation quickly led to O.J. Simpson, with key evidence including blood at the crime scene and his Rockingham estate. Five days later, his arrest warrant triggered a surreal, slow-speed Bronco chase that captivated millions.

The infamous McMartin Preschool trial epitomized the daycare abuse hysteria of the 1980s. What began with unsubstantiated allegations by a mentally ill parent spiraled into a seven-year legal battle, costing $16 million and leaving lives shattered—without a single conviction. Through flawed investigations, suggestive interviews, and sensational claims, the case raised critical questions about justice, credibility, and the power of mass panic. Join us as we explore the events, the fallout, and the lessons learned from one of America’s most controversial trials.
