PROVEN INNOCENT (ordered to series; fka “Infamy”)A legal team, led by a fierce and fearless female lawyer with a hunger for justice, reopens investigations, putting their own lives in danger to exonerate the innocent that were ‘proven’ guilty. Our lead’s motivation comes from her infamous past; as a young adult she was found guilty and later exonerated in a high-profile case in which she became a tabloid sensation, household name and national celebrity. While a hero and a victim to some, her bold and bullish tactics garner her some enemies— one of whom will do anything to see her go down for a crime we know she did not commit.Cast (thus far)Rachelle Lefevre (Mary Kills People) as Madeline Scott, a fierce and fearless lawyer with a hunger for justice.
