Airdate: Leavenworth

True crime doco series Leavenworth by filmmaker Steven Soderbergh comes to Stan next week.

The 5 part series centres around a controversial true-crime story that plays out in the US military justice system. All episodes will be available at once.

Clint Lorance is serving a 19-year sentence for murder at the United States Penitentiary, Leavenworth. While deployed in Afghanistan in July 2012, the former lieutenant ordered fire on three local men riding a motorcycle, killing two of them and outraging his platoon. In a firsthand account of a soldier navigating the U.S. Army’s legal system, Lorance seeks to overturn his conviction, which provokes an emotional debate between supporters and detractors that rises to the national stage.
