Plot: A grieving family's daughter was killed in a car crash with a drunken driver. They face bureaucratic delays in bringing the case to trial. In court, they see a young, hard-pressed district attorney struggling against technicalities and maneuverings used by the driver's attorney to keep the client out of jail and on the streets as a legal driver. The judge repeatedly rules in favor of the defense, making it appear the driver might escape punishment.
