In New York four years after the bombing of Hiroshima, a bible-carrying drifter who witnesses the rape and murder of a black woman is framed and pursued by locals while left as the sole protector of the woman’s young son.

In cases ripped from the headlines, police investigate serious and often deadly crimes, weighing the evidence and questioning the suspects until someone is taken into custody. The district attorney's office then builds a case to convict the perpetrator by proving the person guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Working together, these expert teams navigate all sides of the complex criminal justice system to make New York a safer place.
