Summary:

I’m not to blame. It was my brain! Defence teams, particularly in violent criminal cases, are increasingly using neurological evidence to argue that damage to their clients’ brain deprived them of the free will to make rational choices about their behaviour. The final film in our series about the brain uses real-life cases to explain and evaluate three ways this evidence is being used in court: acquired brain damage; traumatic childhood experiences and genetic predisposition.
