When an innocent little African American girl named Tonya Hailey is raped and beaten by 2 beer-guzzling rednecks, the town of Canton, Mississippi is shocked. Her father, Carl Lee, is outraged, and figuring he could not see those boys be set free, decides to take justice into his own hands and kills them in front of numerous witnesses in the courthouse. Now it's up to Jake Brigance to get him off the hook. He has people that help him, but he is up against tough D.A. Rufus Buckley. Will he be able to prove that a black man can get a fair trial in Mississippi?
