Overview
- Both episodes of Caroline Flack: Search For The Truth were released on 10 November, presenting new videos, voice notes and texts from the late presenter.
- The series highlights that the CPS initially recommended a caution for the 2019 incident before a Metropolitan Police appeal led to an assault-by-beating charge.
- Producers say the aim is to correct inaccuracies and present the defense narrative that was absent from contemporaneous reporting.
- The documentary shows Flack saying she had considered making her own film about her ordeal, as friends recall her acute distress and self-harm in the days around her first court hearing.
- A 2023 Met apology acknowledged no recorded rationale for the CPS appeal, while the CPS maintains the prosecution was properly brought and a coroner later ruled Flack died by suicide after learning the case would proceed.
