61st Street

Overview

Moses Johnson, a talented high school athlete, finds his promising future shattered when he is wrongfully charged with the murder of a police officer during a botched drug operation. As he navigates the treacherous waters of Chicago's deeply flawed criminal justice system, his fate rests in the hands of seasoned public defender Franklin Roberts. Eager to confront the systemic racism embedded in the judicial process, Roberts views this case as a critical opportunity to fight for justice not only for Moses but for the broader community impacted by such injustices.
