Trama
Nick, figlio di poveri immigrati siciliani che ha già conosciuto la galera, viene accusato dell'assassinio di un poliziotto. Il giovane vuol essere difeso dall'avvocato Morton, il quale conosce bene la miseria dei bassifondi perché vi è cresciuto. L'avvocato crede all'innocenza del suo cliente.
