Dommer John Deed

Jo Mills defends a drug addict charged with attempted murder who escaped from custody 16 years earlier; he alleges that the police forced him to sign a confession.

Menace and intimidation fill the air in Deed's court when three young men are charged with shooting a rival gang member.

Deed is presented with a prisoner who has liquidated a pedophile and the jury clears him; Jo gets a shock when the man publicly calls the country to arms.

Deed's fellow judges turn against him for his indiscretion with a claimant; Jo sits as a judge in an embezzlement trial and allegations are made about a government minister taking bribes to accept false billing on defense contracts.

Judge John Deed presides over a civil action against a waste incinerator company accused of damaging the health of the community.

During a reality TV show, a contestant kills another on camera; Deed hears the trial of the producers, who are charged with manslaughter.
