Plot summary
Eddie Rios, a community activist in New York City, stands accused of killing two police officers, his ex-wife among them. A jury finds him not guilty on legal technicalities, and he leaves the courthouse a free man. Detective Steve Donohue, the officer who made the arrest, will not let that verdict stand. In the courtroom he takes Rios, the judge and the jury hostage and declares a mistrial, saying that he will try the case again himself and put in the evidence that was not allowed the first time. Donohue's captain, Lou Unger, urges him to end the standoff peaceably.
