Another outstanding show that tackles the human side of court cases.
A sidebar case deals with a heavy-set black woman wanting to take on the fast food restaurant for her obesity.
The major theme of tonight's episode dealt with what a priest hears at confession. A man, having spent 25 years in jail for a murder that he did not commit, discovers that another person, who killed himself, told a priest in the confessional that the other man did not do the killing. All sorts of dilemmas come up and Harriet really asserted herself at the parole board hearing.
Tommy Jefferson, the condescending, bombastic attorney, really goes the limit in a pressing his laundry case. Our young attorney finds evidence that Jefferson has not been exactly forthcoming.
A very interesting, well informative show.
