Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Michael, son of a prestigious family, and his friends rape young alcoholic Patty in a bar in front of many witnesses, but everyone looks away or leaves. The only usable witness the prosecutors find are Michael's brother Kevin and his wife Anna. Anna is beset by severe pressure from both her husband's family and the prosecution before, and even more after, her decision to testify.

| Goofs | During the trial, the Defense Attorney on more than one occasion screams at the top of his lungs directly in the face of a witness, without any objection from the District Attorney or Judge.
