ReportSynopsis
Eddie Dodd is a burnt out former civil rights lawyer who now specializes in defending drug dealers. Roger Baron, newly graduated from law school, has followed Eddie's great cases and now wants to learn at his feet. With Roger's idealistic prodding, Eddie reluctantly takes on a case of a young Korean man who, according to his mother, has been in jail for eight years for a murder he didn't commit.

The movie centers around a man who is shot and killed. It is shown multiple times but not too graphic. Guns are brandished a couple other times. Some cops shoot into the air to break up a fight in a prison. A man is shot through the neck, not too graphic but still disturbing and doesn't cut away. A man is shot at as he walks away but does not get hit.

Eddie smokes a joint a couple times. He is an attorney who specializes in drug dealers, so narcotics & drug use are discussed a lot. A man is found dead with a syringe in his arm. A man abuses painkillers.

A man is shanked, some blood. Crime scene photos of a dead man are shown, but are in black and white and not too graphic. There are some flashbacks of this also in black and white, some blood. A man is shot in the neck and it doesn't cut away, some gore there but not over the top. His corpse is shown with blood on it.
