Anatomy of a Murder

A defense attorney from Michigan takes on a challenging case, representing a troubled veteran accused of murder, and uncovers the dark truth behind the soldier's claim of temporary insanity and alleged wife abuse.

Frederick Manion, an army lieutenant, is accused of murdering a bartender, Barney Quill, who he claims had raped and beaten his wife Laura. Despite Laura's support, the prosecution questions her credibility and Biegler, Manion's defense lawyer, discovers that Manion's possessive and jealous nature, as well as Laura's reputation for flirting, could compromise their case.
