In 'One Minute Remaining' I speak with inmates serving lengthy prison sentences for a range of different crimes. From arson to robbery, attempted murder and even murder itself and everything in between.I'm not here to try and prove them innocent or guilty, what I am here to do is allow them the chance to tell their stories. We'll look at the case's against them and allow them to tell us their accounts of the events that lead up to their incarceration.Join the OMR Family and help support the show in a way that suits you, plus get bonus content, all the links are here HOTLINE:03 5294 0569Got a Question about a case? comment or just thoughts you'd like to share.

episode 152: The Jury: Murder Trial - Ed Kellie
The Jury system is one that is used all across the globe. A selection of every day men and women like you and I tasked with the job of coming to a decision of innocence or guilt. Lay people who most of the time have little or no knowledge of the law.
As a group they are thrown together, each with their own biases, feelings and personalities, they must work together to find a verdict.
We all see them sitting at their seats in the courtroom, watch as they take notes and listen to the evidence but what we don't see is what goes one behind closed doors, what discussions are being had, how certain personalities control the room, until now!
The Jury Murder Trial is a fantastic show from the UK that has come up with a unique social experiment to not only try and uncover and understand the dynamics inside a jury room but also to see if two separate jury's hearing the same evidence will come to the same conclusion.
One of the shows creators Ed Kelly sat down with me to talk about how this all came about and what reaction they've had since the show has aired.
