YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Some of the biggest names in politics and media have appeared on the fifth estate over the years but most memorable are the ordinary people thrust into the national spotlight because of the extraordinary circumstances they found themselves in. Shelley Piercey was like that. A widow from Newfoundland, in 1987, she and her lawyer took her fight for accountability public after her husband was electrocuted at work.
