Especially among the dead on the scene, a prostitute and stripper from New Orleans. So Darl is replaced by the influential judges of the town the well-intentioned advice, submit the case to be shelved as soon as possible. Normally, the ambitious little guardian of the law would have no problem with that, but the sheriff office sits the attractive widow of murder victim, and urges a thorough investigation.
