'Proven Innocent' preview: Before Madeline Scott fought for the innocent, Ezekiel Boudreau did and set her free

There's a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Fox legal drama 'Proven Innocent,' and here's why Russell Hornsby's character is so important
PUBLISHED FEB 15, 2019

One more day to go for the premiere of Fox's highly anticipated legal drama 'Proven Innocent,' and we have so many powerful characters to watch out for. Madeline Scott, played by Rachelle Lefevre takes center stage as the young lawyer fiercely fighting for the wrongly convicted because she herself was falsely sentenced for the murder of her best friend Rosemary Lynch.

Ten years after she was proven innocent, she becomes a lawyer herself to fight for those just like her. However, the entirety of this premise is possible, thanks to the lawyer who proved Madeline's innocence first and empowered her to fight for justice - Ezekiel Boudreau, played by Russell Hornsby.
