Ambitious D.A. Victor Scott (Edward G. Robinson) zealously prosecutes Ed Clary (DeForest Kelley) for a womans murder. But as Clary walks the last mile to the electric chair, Scott receives evidence that exonerates the condemned man. Realizing that hes made a terrible mistake he tries to stop the execution, but is too late. Humbled by his grievous misjudgement, Scott resigns as a prosecutor. Entering private practice, he employs the same cunning that made his reputation and draws the attention of mob kingpin, Frank Garland (Albert Dekker). The mobster succeeds in bribing Scott into representing one of his stooges on a murder rap and Scott, in a grand display of courtroom theatrics, wins the case. But soon Scott finds himself embroiled in dirty mob politics. *beth*
