In this episode, Wayne Flower is looking at the heartbreaking and tragic house fire that claimed the lives of two children and injured a third- and the mother of all three who now faces charges of negligent manslaughter.
Shania Lee’s lawyer says that there was no way, and no evidence, that she could have known what was going to happen that night. But the police hold a more distressing belief, alleging that Lee left the house after the fire began.
Using voice actors to recreate the events of the courtroom, Wayne is taking you inside Lee’s bail hearing, where the police lay out every detail from their investigation.
The Trial series uses actors and some voices generated by AI. Their words are taken as verbatim from the official court transcript.
