But the road to a verdict would be anything but straightforward.
In Part Two, we follow the trial process, the evidence heard in court, the psychiatric arguments surrounding Kilroy’s state of mind, and the extraordinary delays that kept Valerie’s family waiting for years.
We also look at what happened after the criminal case, and the legal battles that continued long after the courtroom emptied.
