Walking home with her 12-year-old daughter after midnight on the Fourth of July, single mother is brutally assaulted by a local gang with her daughter Bethie watching. Bethie is able to identify the rapists, but when the rapists hire a hot shot attorney who gets them free, Dromoor, a local police officer who was first on the scene when the police were called, starts to take matters into his own hands.
