Wendy Sue Anderson had been drinking heavily when her car hit Lee Hatzenbueller and his 17-year-old son, Jacob. Jacob was killed, and Lee continues to suffer from brain injuries sustained in the crash. But was Wendy Sue the only one at fault, and can her attorney, Susan Crawford, save her from going to prison for manslaughter? As Wendy Sue awaits trial, she must confront her alcoholism, and her young daughter must face the possibility of a future without a parent to care for her. And Lee Hatzenbueller struggles with the loss of his son, and compassion for the woman responsible for his death. This show follows all these characters, and the jury, as Wendy Sue Anderson faces trial for a crime that could put her behind bars for more than 10 years.
