Plot Overview

A young mother hires Ken after she's charged with brutally beating her infant son. She claims that the injuries were sustained when he accidentally fell down a flight of stairs, but a formidable Assistant D.A. insists he can prove otherwise, and he's ready to up the charges to murder if the boy dies...which indeed does happen.
