As the racist perpetrators of his daughter's horrific rape were being brought to court, anguished black father Carl Lee Hailey shot and killed them to extract revenge for the tragedy.

In this small, segregated Southern town, Brigance finds it impossible to believe that he can achieve Hailey's acquittal given his ethnicity and the intentional nature of his offences, but Carl has unflinching faith in him.
