In the beginning of the book we are introduced to sixteen year old Steve Harmon who is being charged with involuntary manslaughter and may face capital punishment. He is on trial throughout the story and he is on the defense side of the case. Bobo Evans, James King and Osvaldo Cruz, who is in the Mexican gang Diablos, were a part of this stick up. Bobo Evans and Bolden were barely acquaintances, but Bobo offered a deal to Wendell Bolden for cartons of cigarettes from the robbery. Bolden told Zinzi and Zinzi used the information to get himself out of jail. So the two robbers and their two accomplices were brought into court so the jury could give them a final verdict. On the prosecution side Sandra Petrocelli tries to get the jury to believe that Steve and King viciously murdered Alguinaldo Nesbitt. Petrocelli as well as O’Brien and Briggs uses testimonies to convince the judge that their witnesses are innocent.
