The Killing Yard plot

"An act no one could forgive. And only one man could defend. The true story of the Attica Prison riot."

The 1971 'Attica Prison' uprising resulted in 10 guards dead and 39 inmates dead and set a bloody chapter in American history. This is the true story of Shango, an African-American prisoner, who was used as a scapegoat by the government to cover up a conspiracy. This plot could even have gotten through to Governor Rockefeller. With the help of righteous white lawyer Ernie Goodman, Shango gets a defense who must clear him of all blame and uncover the shocking truth.
