Review

 

A true story about a gruesome case that changed LAPD policies forever...



One night in l963, two plainclothes LAPD officers were abducted by armed small-time criminals after a routine traffic stop, then driven to a remote area where one was brutally executed. The other officer managed to escape and the perpetrators were captured and brought to trial. Despite overwhelming evidence, the slayers managed to drag the justice process on for years through appeals and delaying tactics and little by little the surviving officer began to fall apart...
