Synopsis:
When a teenage boy is slain by the Houston police following a stolen van chase, his father (Hal Holbrook) undertakes a tireless investigation into the truth and uncovers the fact that the gun found with the boy's body was a "throwdown," a weapon planted by the police. This true story initially was to be called "The Throwdown", after the article on which the teleplay was based. An Emmy Award nomination went to the film's sound mixer.
