No one had ever won a "wrongful death" suit against the Boston Police, but when two white cops shoot an innocent black man in the back and without a struggle, attorney Lawrence O'Donnell (Richard Crenna) takes on the case. Based on the true story of the victim's widow who talked the former cop turned lawyer, and his four sons, into taking her case, which produced a groundbreaking victory for victims' rights.
