A Quick Recap!
In the first season finale, Burger advised Mason to focus on Hick’s testimony instead of working on his theories of using Ennis. Street suggested that Mason bring Emily on the stand, and he agreed. But during the cross-examination, Barnes tricked Emily and forced her to take responsibility for Charlie’s death. But Mason wasn’t fond of Barnes’s statement. He blamed Barnes for attacking Emily’s character. After five days of deliberation, the judge declared a mistrial after the jury became deadlocked. However, Barnes didn’t give up and vowed to retry the case. But he seemed pissed off when a reporter claimed the failed trial would affect his mayoral campaign.
So he attacked the reporter. Meanwhile, Strickland met with the juror he paid off. He revealed that two other jurors were voted not guilty. Despite Barnes’s attempt, the case wasn’t retried. As for Emily, she accepted the baby Birdy and went to the miracle-based church. On the other side, Stickland left Mason to work for Burger, who was working on the church’s financial crimes.
