Plot – In Chicago, the Archbishop Rushman is killed in his house. He was a close friend of John Shaughnessy, chief of the district attorney. John presides over the bishop’s charity foundation in a rich diocese full of lands, that John and other businessmen are interested in acquiring. The police immediately chases Aaron Stampler, a young, shy and stutterer parishioner. Shaughnessy entrusts the case to his assistant Janet Venable, ex-lover of the lawyer Martin Vail, who has already defended Aaron. Vail is convinced that Aaron suffers from mental illness, because he is apathetic and moaner, but also furious and violent.

“I believe in the notion that people are innocent until proven guilty. I believe in that notion because I choose to believe in the basic goodness of people. I choose to believe that not all crimes are committed by bad people. And I try to understand that some very, very good people do some very bad things.”
“I speak. You do not speak. Your job is to just sit there and look innocent.”
