Trailer:

Synopsis: A black, New York homicide detective endangers the prosecution of a rich, racist white man when he takes the law into his own hands. Disgusted with the workings of the criminal justice system, he quits the police force, and even teams up with a Latin coke dealer, in order to bring the silver-spoon killer to justice.

Comment: Modern day version of the 1970's black detective film.
