Description:

Public defender Kathleen Riley defends Carl Anderson, a deaf and mute homeless veteran accused of murdering his judge employer and the judge's secretary. As evidence emerges questioning Anderson’s guilt, Riley teams up with Eddie Sanger, a jury member and lobbyist, who also believes in Anderson’s innocence. They investigate the shocking deaths, uncovering a complicated network of lies, political maneuvering, and concealed agendas. The film explores themes of injustice, prejudice, and the fight for truth, revealing corruption at the highest levels of power as Riley and Sanger work to prove Anderson's innocence. Blending legal suspense with mystery, the film follows their determined efforts to expose the truth, highlighting the struggles of those affected by a system that sometimes fails to provide justice.
