Trial 4 and The Queen's Gambit

Trial 4 and The Queen's Gambit

As Lara gets closer to her pet detective graduation, the panel's got some great things from Netflix to talk about.

Sean Ellis won a new trial decades after being convicted of murdering a Boston policeman. What he didn’t know then was Detective John Mulligan was a dirty cop and his partners steered the investigation away from their own illegal activity. In “Trial 4,” Ellis prepares to go back to court and prove he was railroaded to close a case that would expose police corruption.
