À propos de ce contenu audio
Chattanooga 1906. The town erupts when a young white woman is assaulted in a dark cemetery. After a quick, flawed trial, a black man named Ed Johnson is convicted of the crime and sentenced to death. Despite a direct order from the U.S. Supreme Court to stop the execution, a mob lynches Johnson. The infuriated high court holds Captain Joseph Shipp, the ambitious county sheriff, responsible for the outrage and charges him with contempt.
As the sheriff's case progresses, another crime rocks Chattanooga. The body of a beautiful young woman is found murdered on Lookout Mountain and her killer slips through the sheriff's fingers.
Desperate to save his career, Captain Shipp makes a wild gamble on Dave Edwards, a charming but notoriously insane inmate in the county jail. Dave is released and deputized to apprehend the fugitive killer but his madness soon manifests, with dreadful consequences.
