The Fugitive: the Final Chapter

on BBC One London

This Inside Story special is an account of the ongoing murder case that inspired The Fugitive TV series and film. In 1954, wealthy surgeon Dr Sam Sheppard was given a life sentence for murdering his wife. Although he was later acquitted, he was never pronounced innocent and died in poverty. Now his son has brought the case to court for a third time, to clear Sheppard's name and claim damages for wrongful arrest.
