Leonardt takes on clients with single-minded intent: To defend them within the boundaries of the law. Taken from modern headlines, these stories offer a chilling reminder that under extreme circumstances, almost anyone has the capacity for criminal acts. 6 episodes, 4 ½ hrs, 3 DVDs. Mature audiences.
