This police/courtroom drama is based on the true story of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, who for decades ran a Philadelphia clinic serving low-income women. He is accused of performing late-term abortions and of killing newborn babies by severing their spinal cords. The clinic's filthy, unsafe conditions lead to the death of one patient, and investigators uncover more evidence of serious crimes. In 2013, Gosnell stands trial on murder charges and other offenses.
