What would happen if you were wrongly accused of raping a young girl?

What would you do to fight for your freedom?

'Until Proven Innocent' is the true story of the crusade to free David Dougherty - the man wrongly imprisoned for the rape & abduction of an 11-year-old
girl.

In 1993, David Dougherty was sentenced to seven years and nine months for the rape and abduction of an 11 year old girl. When the guilty verdict was read, Dougherty was dragged from the courtroom, screaming at the jury that they had "got it wrong".

The hard-fought battle to free Dougherty is recreated in this compelling & moving feature length TV ONE drama.

Starring Cohen Holloway; Jodie Rimmer; and Peter Elliott.

Directed by Peter Burger.
