Wrongly Accused

An investigative reporter and a team of forensic experts set out to disprove Barri White's convictions, but the question of who the real killer is looms over the case.

In December of 2010, Joanna Yeates was found dead near her home, resulting in the arrest of her landlord, Christopher Jefferies; his eccentric appearance and mannerisms made him a prime suspect, and he was condemned by the national media.

After his release, Jefferies was the subject of continued speculation and hounding from the police and the press for another two months; it was only once detectives identified the real killer that Jefferies was able to restore his reputation.

In March 1950, Timothy Evans was hanged for murdering his wife and daughter; John Christie, a star witness in the trial, was later revealed to be a serial killer; Timothy's sister breaks her silence to recall the tragic events.

Even after Evans' death, the local death toll of women was increasing, leading police to investigate further; justice would eventually catch up with John Christie, but Timothy Evans' conviction has not been overturned.
