Murder Trial Tonight: Death of A Landlord

4 July 2026 – 4 July 2026

Interactive

Victor Sloane, a wealthy and ruthless landlord, was found murdered in his office—his young child the sole witness to the crime.

Police charged tenant Tre Bennet, a reclusive man battling mental health issues, claiming he had the clearest motive: months of unpaid rent, repeated eviction threats, and allegations that Sloane verbally abused his mother.

But is Bennet truly the killer—or is there more beneath the surface?

You are the jury. Hear the case from the prosecution and defence. Deliver your verdict: Guilty or Not Guilty. The shocking real-life outcome will be revealed on the big screen after the trial.
