We hear the closing speeches. Lord Armstrong invites the jury to retire and begin their deliberations. Will they find William MacDowell guilty of murdering his lover and their son?
Defence witness, Dr Gamblin, who was Renee’s GP gives evidence about an encounter outside his practice that has haunted him for over 40 years.
Fresh evidence is presented surrounding a clandestine meeting months before Renee and Andrew disappeared. There is an offer of money for a job that needs doing.
We hear from the accused, 80 year old William MacDowell, about his illicit affair with Renee and how he regularly treated her.
