What happens
They Stand Accused is an American dramatized court show, the first live courtroom drama on television. The program began as Cross Question on CBS in January 1949, ending in April 1949. The show was "Chicago's first regular contribution to the CBS television network". The program originated from WGN-TV, and CBS dropped it when that station became an affiliate of the DuMont Television Network. It was broadcast on DuMont from September 11, 1949, to October 5, 1952, and again from September 9 to December 30, 1954. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
