Delbert, Bill, Lyman et Roscoe Ward vivent depuis toujours dans la même ferme de quarante hectares, au milieu de l'état de New-York. Ils ont entre cinquante-neuf ans et soixante et onze ans. Célibataires naïfs et presque illettrés, ils occupent deux pièces dans une cabane délabrée, sans eau courante, ni téléphone. Depuis leur enfance, Delbert et Bill partagent le même lit. La nuit du 6 juin 1990, Bill est retrouvé mort dans son lit. Le matin, Delbert est arrêté ; il a avoué le meurtre de Bill par étouffement. Pendant dix mois, il clame son innocence malgré ses premiers aveux. Les 499 habitants de Munnsville pensent que Delbert a signé un document qu'il ne savait pas lire. Ils organisent sa défense et récoltent 10 000 dollars pour le faire libérer sous caution. Le procès s'ouvre le 18 Mars 1991.

The film focuses on an evidentiary hearing held in Marion County, Florida in February of 2001 which was the site of some but not all of Wuornos' murders for which she was convicted and sentenced to death. It shows the work of the Office of Capital Collateral Regional counsel, led by attorney Joseph T. Hobson who is both interviewed and featured in the film and who seeks to vacate Wuornos' death sentences. It shows Judge Victor Musleh presiding over these proceedings and assistant state attorney, now judge, James McCune who defended the death sentences for the State of Florida. Hobson is shown vigorously cross-examining Wuornos' trial counsel, Steven Glazer, aka "Dr. Legal". Glazer was the unflattering subject of a prior Broomfield documentary on Aileen Wuornos, somewhat the "prequel" to this work, called Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer. It was Hobson's line of attack that the efficacy of his client's (Wuornos') trial strategy was compromised by Glazer's pecuniary and self-promotional aims.
