What really happens when a civil or criminal case makes it to trial and 12 regular people (most of whom have no formal education about the legal system) are expected to be an impartial judge and ultimately make the final decision about a person’s guilt or innocence? Each episode breaks down the case before exploring what it was actually like to sit in the jury box: the pressure, the uncertainty, the conflicts, and the lasting impact of serving on a jury.

Lara Kemp's brother is dead. She's a wife and a mother, but she's lost in her grief and far too many days she finds herself curled up on her closet floor, unable to function. She's miserable and worst of all, she's lost all her memories of her brother and can only remember him through the stories other people share. When Lara comes close to taking her own life, she and her husband take steps to get her the help she needs. They go on a much-needed visit to Lara's aunt in the small town of Grafton, Illinois, on the banks of the mighty Mississippi River.
