Jack the Ripper, one of the world's oldest cold cases, terrorized London's East End in the 1800's.

Then, we take a depressing but necessary turn and dissect the story of the Scottsboro Boys, nine black teenagers falsely accused of raping two white women aboard a train near Scottsboro, Alabama, in 1931.
