✎ Suggest a correctionVincent Day (Warren William) is a prosecutor who is on the fast track to success. When a man he zealously prosecuted all the way to the electric chair is found to have been innocent, he quits his job and becomes a defense attorney specializing in the representation of gangsters. He will use any tactic to get his clients acquitted, up to and including drinking a slow-acting poison from a bottle of evidence to prove that the substance isn't lethal. The movie leaves it ambiguous whether Day, shot several times, will survive.
