Ghosts of Mississippi

Medgar Evers is a black civil rights activist in Mississippi, who was gunned down by an assassin on June 12, 1963. This is later suspected that Byron De La Beckwith, a white supremacist, is the murderer and he would be tried twice and both trials ended in hung juries. For more than 30 years, Evers' widow Myrlie has been trying to bring Beckwith to justice and she believes that she has what it takes to bring him to trial again. However, most of the evidence from the original trial have gone missing but assistant D.A. Bobby De Laughter decides to do what he can to help her despite being warned that this might hurt his political aspirations and the strain it's causing on his marriage.
