Will he gain justice or be wrongfully charged of this terrible crime? Melvin is seventeen, the star of his basketball team, and expected to have a bright future. But it all falls to pieces one night when he joins his brothers thug friends at a wild party with two rich white girls. Drugged and drunk for most of the night, Melvin misses a brutal assault on the two girls. When the crime comes to light, he is arrested and charged with masterminding the gang rape. One of the girls fathers is a prominent prosecutor, who persuades the girls to lie all because he hates the possibility that a young black man could succeed in life. He wants to crush him, and Melvin doesnt stand a chance. Confused and physically drained, Melvin confesses to the crime. Mentally exhausted, Melvin tries to kill himself and is sent to the hospital. But then, unexpectedly, a reporter interviews him and finds overlooked flaws in the case. After a determined effort the case is finally reviewed. What happens next isnt the happy ending Melvin was hoping for. But, with new determination, he learns to move forward.
