Summary:
This dramatization of a factual incident opens in a quiet Connecticut town where a priest is murdered while waiting on a street corner. The citizens are horrified and demand action from the police. All of the witnesses identify a nervous out-of-towner, as the killer. Although he denies the crime, no one will believe him.
